Master of Mathematics

A Master of Mathematics (or MMath) degree is a specific integrated master's degree for courses in the field of mathematics.

United Kingdom

In the United Kingdom, the MMath is the internationally recognized standard qualification after a four-year course in mathematics at a university.[1] The MMath programme was set up by most leading universities after the Neumann Report in 1992.[2] It is classed as a level 7 qualification in the Frameworks of Higher Education Qualifications of UK Degree-Awarding Bodies. The UCAS course codes for the MMath degrees start at G100 upwards, most courses taking the codes G101 - G104.

Universities which offer MMath degrees include:

The Open University offered this degree until 2007.

Canada

In Canada, the MMath is a graduate degree offered by the University of Waterloo. The length of the MMath degree program is typically between one and two years, and consists of course work along with a research component. The first Waterloo MMath degrees were awarded in 1967. MMath is the master's degree offered by David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, since it is within the Faculty of Mathematics at Waterloo.

India

In India, the M. Math. is a graduate degree offered by the Indian Statistical Institute. The course consists of two years and is done in the Bangalore and Kolkata centers in alternating years. The participants are selected through a screening test and it is one of the best graduate courses in mathematics offered in India.

The fourth year is identical with the Master of Advanced Study in Mathematics, which was formerly known as the Certificate of Advanced Study in Mathematics and is open to students from other universities. Everyone who completed Part III since 1962 became eligible for the appropriate Masters degree, retrospectively.
