PhD in Mathematics
This degree is awarded in recognition of distinctive scholarship and original contributions to knowledge in Mathematics. The PhD program is especially designed to prepare the student for teaching at the graduate level and doing mathematical research in academic, industrial and business settings. Students studying various fields within the realm of pure mathematics would be included in this PhD program.

PhD in Mathematics (Applied Mathematics Option)
The specialization of modern academic disciplines provides both a challenge to those who wish to do research at the interface of mathematics and its areas of application and many opportunities to make valuable contributions. The Applied Mathematics Option allows students from a range of backgrounds to pursue a traditional applied mathematics program, while retaining the option to thoroughly learn an area of application. Entering students may not necessarily have a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics. However, they will be required to demonstrate a grasp of the core areas of advanced calculus and linear algebra at the level of a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics. They will then be given great latitude to take specialized courses in Mathematics and their area of application.

PhD in Mathematics with Education Emphasis
The degree of PhD in Mathematics with Education Emphasis is awarded in recognition of scholarship and original contributions to the teaching and learning of mathematics. The main difference from the other PhD choices is in the research focus. The requirements for this PhD include competence in core mathematics, as well as study in the research methodologies applicable to research in mathematics education.

The PhD in Mathematics with Statistics Option has been replaced with a new degree program, the PhD in Statistical Science. Please visit https://gradschool.wsu.edu/degrees/factsheet/doctor-philosophy-statistical-science/ for more information.
