Master
of Mathematics (MS)
School of Science
and Engineering
Atlantic International University
The Master of Mathematics (MS) program
objective is to help students obtain specialized
knowledge and solid math teaching skills
that prepare them for their professional
development. The Master of Mathematics (MS)
program is offered online via distance learning.
After evaluating both academic record and
life experience, AIU staff working in conjunction
with Faculty and Academic Advisors will
assist students in setting up a custom-made
program, designed on an individual basis.
This flexibility to meet student needs is
seldom found in other distance learning
programs. Our online program does not require
all students to take the same subjects/courses,
use the same books, or learning materials.
Instead, the online Master of Mathematics
(MS) curriculum is designed individually
by the student and academic advisor. It
specifically addresses strengths and weaknesses
with respect to market opportunities in
the student’s major and intended field
of work. Understanding that industry and
geographic factors should influence the
content of the curriculum instead of a standardized
one-fits-all design is the hallmark of AIU’s
unique approach to adult education. This
philosophy addresses the dynamic and constantly
changing environment of working professionals
by helping adult students in reaching their
professional and personal goals within the
scope of the degree program.
Important: Below is an example of the topics
or areas you may develop and work on during
your studies. By no means is it a complete
or required list as AIU programs do not
follow a standardized curriculum. It is
meant solely as a reference point and example.

Job Description
Master of Mathematics
Mathematicians working in theoretical mathematics
are concerned with expanding and clarifying
mathematical theories and laws. They seek
to increase basic knowledge about mathematical
relationships and formulate new laws of
mathematics. Although the few mathematicians
in theoretical research do not consider
the practical uses of their findings, their
work has been essential in many areas of
science and engineering. For example, a
new kind of geometry developed in the 1850s
formed part of the basis for the theory
of relativity, which in turn made the development
of nuclear energy possible.
Mathematicians doing applied work use the
theories and laws developed by theoretical
mathematicians. Applied mathematicians solve
specific problems in such fields as physical
science, social science, business, computer
science, government, biology, and engineering.
They may work in the electronics industry
developing new kinds of computers and software.
Applied mathematicians sometimes study numerical
information about medical problems, such
as the effect of a new drug on a disease.
Mathematicians working in the aerospace
field may provide calculations that help
determine whether the outside surfaces of
a spaceship are properly designed to keep
it on course.
