Graduate

Bryn Mawr's Graduate Program in Mathematics occupies a special niche in the mathematics education community in the United States. We offer university-quality research training that lead to M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in the supportive environment of a liberal arts college. For students interested in a well-rounded training that includes serious attention to teaching as well as research, Bryn Mawr is an excellent alternative to the large research-oriented university.

A number of our students are supported by teaching assistantships. All graduate students are given office space and department mailboxes and have access to computers in the offices and the mathematics labs.

Our program emphasizes the broad divisions of pure mathematics. For M.A. thesis and Ph.D. dissertation research, students may concentrate in any of the numerous specializations of our faculty.

Bryn Mawr is located in a peaceful suburb of Philadelphia. The region has many mathematical opportunities. In addition to the numerous mathematics colloquia that take place at Bryn Mawr and Haverford Colleges, students participate in research seminars on campus, and have easy access to mathematical lectures at nearby math departments which include University of Pennsylvania, Temple University, Princeton University, and the Institute for Advanced Study.
