Applied Mathematics and Statistics MS

To obtain departmental certification for the master’s degree in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, the student must:

1. Complete satisfactorily at least eight one-semester courses of graduate work in a coherent program approved by the Department Head. 
2. Most 3- or 4-credit AMS Department 600-level and 700-level courses (EN.553.604 Foundational Methods in Applied Mathematics, EN.553.689 Software Engineering for Data Science, and research/internship courses may not be counted.)
3. Certain courses in other departments are also acceptable, and must be fully approved in advance. At most 3 courses outside the department may be counted toward the 8 (or 10) courses used toward Master's degree requirements. Non-JHU (transfer) courses may not be used toward degree requirements. 
4. JHU courses listed as 2-credit courses (with the exception of research/internship courses) may count only as one-half course. JHU Public Health courses may count only as one-half course. JHU 1-credit courses may not be used.
5. Meet either of the following options:
6. submit an acceptable research report based on an approved project (see Master’s Student Handbook for details); or
7. complete satisfactorily two additional one-semester graduate courses (with the same restrictions listed in section 1) and as approved by the faculty advisor and Department Head.
