- At UCR, our graduate studies program emphasizes strong interaction with faculty in order to gain maximum benefit from coursework. First, it allows students to explore new mathematical understanding in both personal and social contexts. Secondly, it immerses students deeply in exploration, inquiry, and analysis. Finally, it familiarizes students with the ever-changing body of research literature related to learning and teaching mathematics and contemporary research methodologies.
- The cumulative experiences of our mathematics program prepare graduates to enter top mathematics education programs, take on important leadership roles in mathematics education communities, and enter classrooms better equipped to teach lessons that encourage deeper mathematical thinking.
