Programs of Study

At the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at UMass Lowell, the level of instruction ranges from the training of professional mathematicians in upper-level graduate mathematics courses to the instruction of students in nontechnical majors. Between these two levels lies the education of future mathematics teachers, scientists and engineers, leading to jobs in professions such as education, engineering, finance, actuarial positions, programming and statistics.
