Students who enter the Applied Mathematics Option of the Ph.D. program in
Mathematics are expected to have quantitative backgrounds, including
upper
division course work in Mathematics. Ideally, this would include
familiarity
with advanced calculus and linear algebra at the upper division level.
Students with a deficient background may take Analysis (Math 401 and 402
at
WSU) or Linear Algebra (Math 420 at WSU). Students are expected to make up
deficiencies at the earliest opportunity.
