On our website you will find a great deal of information about these endeavors. Here is a little overview:

Teaching: The major academic programs we offer are:

• Bachelor's degrees in Mathematics
• Joint Bachelor’s/Master’s program
• Ph.D. degree in Mathematics
• Initiatives for outstanding high school students

The goal of each of these is to provide the highest quality education in advanced mathematical theory and techniques.  Our Ph.D. graduates go on to do research at some of the top departments in the country. Undergraduate math majors at Hopkins finish with a degree that prepares them for a wide spectrum of career opportunities both in and out of academia. And our Future Scholars Program introduces high school students to the fun and power of mathematics.

Research: Johns Hopkins has a long history of preeminence in mathematics research, dating back to our founding chairman. As one example of this, the oldest running mathematics journal in the Western Hemisphere, the American Journal of Mathematics, is directed and edited within the Mathematics Department and is published by Johns Hopkins University Press. Today, a vibrant scientific environment is maintained through the interaction of permanent faculty members, postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and a variety of visiting mathematicians. Our areas of expertise include analysis, partial differential equations, algebraic/complex/differential geometry, mathematical physics, number theory, and topology. There are weekly seminars and colloquia on a range of topics, the George Kempf Visitors Program, which every year brings six top experts from around the world to Hopkins to lecture on current developments, and the Japanese American Mathematical Institute (JAMI), which sponsors both short and long term visitors throughout the year.

To complement the time spent on teaching and research activities, there are many occasions for people in our department to get to know one another better. These include afternoon teas, an undergraduate Math Club, barbeques in the fall and spring, an annual winter holiday party, pick-up frisbee/football/bridge matches, and more. We invite everyone in the Hopkins community to join us for these events!

Please use this website to explore the many facets of the Mathematics Department. Be sure to check out our annual newsletter. Specific questions about the programs listed above may be directed to our Academic Program Coordinator. I look forward to hearing your comments and suggestions.
