Introduction
The graduate program in mathematics at the University of Connecticut offers high quality educational and research opportunities in a rural setting with easy access to most of the Northeast.
The University campus at Storrs is the major public institution of higher education in the state of Connecticut. Additionally, the University has been rated as the top public university in New England by national publications. As a medium sized state university, it is able to offer more individualized and personal attention to students than is common in larger institutions.
The Mathematics Department maintains a strong commitment to research in both classical and modern aspects of the discipline. The various areas of research are discussed later in this brochure and include a balance of mathematical areas including applications. The department maintains numerous personal computers, a network of Apple workstations, a Power Macintosh laboratory and a Graphics Laboratory in addition to providing access to both local small supercomputers and the National Science Foundation super-computation centers. Interested and qualified graduate students can gain access to these facilities.
Since the University lies at the geographic center for the most active intellectual, cultural and recreational centers in the country, the opportunities for study and recreation are vast. Seminars with participants from The University of Connecticut and M.I.T., Tufts, Brown, Yale, Wesleyan and the schools of the Connecticut River Valley in Massachusetts meet on a regular basis. Department members also participate in seminars at the Boston and New York area schools.
In addition to a rich and varied cultural life on campus, the main cultural centers of New England and
New York are close at hand.
