The
department maintains close ties with
other departments at Johns Hopkins University, as well as the Johns Hopkins
Medical Institutions and Applied Physics Laboratory
The
Mathematical Sciences department
was formed from earlier departments of statistics, operations research, and
industrial engineering.
Students enter with bachelors degrees in any field of natural science, social
science, or engineering, and pursue careers in statistics, operations research,
or applied mathematics in industry and government.
The
department concentrates on probability and statistics, operations research and
optimization, discrete mathematics, and applied mathematics. This is the only
masters Program offered by the department. (There is a separate pure
mathematics department at the university.)
Partial tuiton waivers are
available for master's students.
