Previous Degree

A person applying for the doctoral program in mathematics education must have already acquired a master’s degree from an accredited college or university, except in certain cases such as admission requests made through fellowship applications such as the McKnight Doctoral Fellowship. The admission committee will consider various master’s degrees (e.g., science, arts, education), however, the committee expects the nature of the coursework and other experiences associated with the degree to provide preparation of doctoral study.

Academic Background

In the event that an applicant’s previous degree is in mathematics education or general education, the applicant must have a strong mathematics content background as evidenced by mathematics courses listed on the applicant’s transcript. Without such background, the applicant should be prepared to build this mathematics content background as part of the doctoral program. In the event that the degree is in mathematics or a related mathematical field, the applicant must have a strong education background as evidenced by education courses listed on the applicant’s transcript. Without such background, the applicant should be prepared to build this education background as part of the doctoral program.
