~~META:title=Homepage~~ ######Welcome to the Homepage of######\\ Department of Mathematics and Statistics [[calculus]] Check out the [[pow:start|Problem of the Week]]. /*{{ :img:a0a0666.jpg }}*/ The Department of Mathematics and Statistics (DOMS) is a vibrant community where mathematicians and statisticians converge to explore, innovate, and educate. We offer a comprehensive range of academic programs, spanning the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels. Thus, besides our faculty and postdoctoral visitors, our community includes a large and valuable cadre of hard-working and talented undergraduate and graduate students. At the [[ug|undergraduate]] level, we have two kinds of degrees: general degrees for majors in Mathematical Sciences are labeled **Bachelor of Arts (BA)**, while our more intensive undergraduate degrees are labeled **Bachelor of Science (BS)**. There are both mathematics tracks and actuarial science tracks within both degrees. For the BA degree, there is also a track in Statistics. A minor in mathematics is also possible. At the [[gd|graduate]] level, we have the **PhD in //Mathematical Sciences//**, **Master of Arts (MA) in //Mathematics//**, and **MA in //[[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/graduate/statistics/|Statistics]]//** degrees. The latter includes a [[https://www.binghamton.edu/math/graduate/4-plus-1.html|4+1 program]] in which students can earn a BA or BS in Mathematical Sciences alongside an MA in Statistics within five years. While our highest degree is a PhD in //Mathematical Sciences//, a significant number of our doctoral dissertations are written on research topics in //Statistics//. All faculty members and postdoctoral visitors are active researchers. The [[research|main areas of concentration]] in the department are: **Algebra**, **Analysis**, **Combinatorics**, **Geometry/Topology** and **Statistics**. Additionally, there is active research that falls between and bridges the main areas. See the [[research| Research Areas]] page for more specific research topics. //The photos above were taken by Jinghao Li, Ph.D. 15'.// ---- \\ ==== Latest Department News ==== Click [[news-archive|here]] for the full news archive. {{blog>news?2&nouser&nocomments&firstseconly}} //Suggestions and comments about the website can be sent to webmaster@math.binghamton.edu//
