Auburn University's M.S. in Mathematics program develops your content knowledge in two key ways. First, through coursework taught in small classes by internationally recognized faculty. And second, by diving deeper into a specific area of mathematics through the writing of a thesis. Together, it adds up to a challenging and rewarding program from a highly ranked university.

Geology is the study of the Earth, including its materials, processes, and history. Basic materials studied are rocks, minerals, and fossils. Also included are resources such as metals, gemstones, fossil fuels, and groundwater. Processes are those found deep within the Earth where temperatures and pressures are high, as well as those that take place under low-temperature, low-pressure conditions at the Earth's surface, where organic as well as inorganic processes are found. The history of the planet is recorded in rock and mineral products and in the record of life as preserved by fossils.
