There are several programs leading to graduate degrees. In addition to the Ph.D. degree, the department offers the M.S. degrees in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, and Statistics. One way to send the application form is to fill out a short request form to receive the application by mail. Alternatively, a blank application form can be downloaded and printed from Tulane University Graduate School. In return, the students teach three 75 minute labs per week.
More advanced students teach one course instead of three labs.
In addition, the Mathematics Department offers Louisiana Board of Regents fellowships to some students. All students working for the Ph.D. degree must satisfy the general requirements as listed in the Bulletin of the Graduate School . Up to two courses may be taken in another department with the approval of the Graduate Studies Committee. For advanced incoming students, limited transfer credit is possible. A student in the Ph.D. program must pass a preliminary exam on topics from advanced calculus and linear algebra.
