Welcome to the UNC School of Mathematical Sciences!
The School of Mathematical Sciences is made up of a dedicated group of students and faculty members. Our faculty members are mathematicians, mathematics education researchers, and computer scientists. Our students are undergraduates, in-service teachers pursuing a Master’s Degree in mathematics, and graduate students pursuing a Ph.D. in Educational Mathematics. Graduates from our programs are school teachers, district administrators, college instructors, university professors, and professionals in business, industry, and government.
Our department has a particular focus on the teaching and learning of mathematics and on the preparation of highly qualified mathematics teachers at all levels. Small classes and approachable professors create a supportive environment for student learning. Every year, the students who graduate from our programs include approximately 25 prospective secondary school teachers; 10 students with a liberal arts emphasis; and 10 students in the applied statistics emphasis area. We also have approximately 50 students enrolled in our Teaching Emphasis Master’s Degree program and approximately 15 students enrolled in our Ph.D. program in Educational Mathematics.
