Florida State University Graduate Programs
Our unique graduate program offers MS and PhD degrees in five areas: Pure Mathematics, Applied & Computational Mathematics, Financial Mathematics, Biomathematics, and Data Science. Each area has its own distinct curriculum encompassing subjects from pure and applied mathematics, as well as subjects from other departments in the case of the interdisciplinary Financial Math, Biomath, and Data Science areas. You can learn more about each area, including information on recent alumni, on the area web pages. For a list of recent PhD graduates, visit Recent PhDs.
