mega yacht a mondello oggi

Yacht da 150 milioni di dollari avvistato a Mondello, l'anno scorso ospitò "Magic" Johnson a Capri

Aquila, lunga 85 metri, è di proprietà della miliardaria americana Ann Walton Kroenke, ereditiera di parte del patrimonio della catena Walmart e moglie del proprietario di diverse società sportive tra cui l'Arsenal. L'imbarcazione viene però spesso noleggiata. Prezzo: 945 mila dollari a settimana

Nell'estate del 2021 venne avvistato a Capri, ma anche a Porto Cervo: a bordo c'era la leggenda del basket "Magic" Johnson con la sua famiglia per una vacanza di lusso nel mare italiano. In questi giorni lo yacht Aquila, imbarcazione da 150 milioni di dollari, si trova al largo di Mondello. Mistero su chi si trovi all'interno di questo gioiello lungo 85 metri che può ospitare 12 persone in 7 cabine, che ha anche catturato l'attenzione dopo un video girato da un palermitano e caricato sui social. Di sicuro c'è che la proprietaria è Ann Walton Kroenke, ereditiera della famiglia fondatrice e proprietaria dei negozi Walmart, tra i leader mondiali della grande distribuzione organizzata.

Chi è la proprietaria dello yacht Aquila

La donna ha un patrimonio stimato da Forbes in 8,1 miliardi di dollari ed è al 227esimo posto della classifica delle persone più ricche del mondo. Nella scheda che la celebre rivista di economia dedica ad Ann Walton Kroenke si legge: "E' la figlia di Bud Walton, che ha aiutato suo fratello, Sam, il fondatore di Walmart, a trasformare la catena in un gigante internazionale della vendita al dettaglio. La donna ha ereditato parte della partecipazione di Bud in Walmart, quando l'uomo è morto nel 1995. Suo marito è il miliardario magnate immobiliare e sportivo Stan Kroenke. Possiede Los Angeles Rams, squadra di football americano, i Denver Nuggets, che milita nell'Nba, i Colorado Avalanche, team di hockey dell'Nhl, e nel calcio i Colorado Rapids, che disputa il campionato Mls, e l'Arsenal, storico club della Premier League inglese".

Chi c'è a bordo dello yacht a Mondello

Non è detto però che a godersi la vacanza nelle acque davanti a Palermo siano gli stessi Walton. Lo yacht, infatti, viene spesso noleggiato. Prezzo: 945 mila dollari a settimana. L'anno scorso fu appunto all'ex giocatore dei Los Angeles Lakers, "Magic" Johnson, ad affittare questo colosso per navigare qualche giorno nello specchio d'acqua compreso tra la Campania e la Sardegna. Fu lo stesso Johnson a postare sui social foto della famiglia a bordo di Aquila. Al momento, invece, non si sa chi stia trascorrendo questo soggiorno da sogno all'interno dello yacht ormeggiato nel golfo di Mondello. La presenza nelle acque palermitane di Aquila è stata rilevata ieri dai principali siti che intercettano il traffico marino. Partita dal Principato di Monaco l'11 maggio, la barca da sogno, è passata successivamente da Genova e Ajaccio, in Corsica, per poi approdare in Sicilia.

Caratteristiche dello yacht Aquila

Sono diversi gli articoli su internet di siti specializzati che descrivono le caratteristiche di Aquila. "Costruito nel 2010 da Derecktor Shipyards e rinnovato nel 2016. I suoi lussuosi interni sono progettati da Dalton Designs e il suo stile esterno è di Tim Heywood Design. Il megayacht Aquila può accogliere fino a 12 persone in 8 cabine, di cui una suite armatoriale e 4 cabine Vip, oltre a 28 membri dell’equipaggio, che sapranno garantire agli ospiti un’esperienza rilassante e all’insegna del lusso. Aquila è infatti uno yacht da charter", si legge su DailyNautica. "Con una velocità di crociera di 15 nodi, una velocità massima di 17 nodi - scrive ancora il sito - ha serbatoi in grado di imbarcare 370 mila litri di carburante. A bordo gli ospiti troveranno aria condizionata, Wi-fi, Jacuzzi sul ponte, palestra, ascensore e stabilizzatori all’ancora. Il tutto circondato da uno stile senza tempo, splendidi arredi e sontuosi posti a sedere per creare un’atmosfera elegante e confortevole".

Megayacht A, has already cost Italy 18 million euros, will still cost a lot of money, and the state cannot dispose of it.

Megayacht A, which is in fact the world’s largest sailboat (although some people refuse to call it a “sailboat”)  had been seized from Russian tycoon Andrei Melnichenko on the night of March 11-12, 2022  while in Trieste, two years ago.

The seizure had been put in place by the Finance Guard in execution of sanctions decided by the European Union against Russian oligarchs after the outbreak of war between Russia and Ukraine.  But the operation was a bloodbath for the coffers of the Italian state, which had to, by law, shoulder the maintenance costs and, as we will explain, cannot get rid of the boat (for now).

The ugliest boat in the world?

When it was launched in 2015, the mega yacht A had sparked a plethora of outrage from sailing purists and sea lovers.  Three masts, 143 meters long, 25 meters wide, 12,600 tons in tonnage, and a height equal to an 8-story building. All metallic, boundless, armored.  Some had gone so far as to call it a “ monster ,” as in a disfigurement not only to classic yacht aesthetic standards, but also to current ecological and energy emergencies, not only of sea-going people.

Today that mega-sailing yacht designed by archistar Philippe Starck is at the center of controversy less related to personal taste and touching us “in the pockets.”

How much does the megayacht A cost Italy?

It has been exactly two years now that A has been moored in the Gulf of Trieste. The daily cost of maintaining the mega yacht is estimated to be between  20,000 and 30,000: multiply that by two years, that’s about 18 million. And the cost is bound to rise, with the end of Russian-Ukrainian tensions to date far away.

In fact, the Italian state must pay for the 20-man crew that looks after the boat, which under custody cannot deteriorate. You also have to do the cleaning and maintenance to all the systems that allow the mega yacht to operate and power its super generator that stays on day and night.

Will the state ever recover this money?

But this money who will give it back to Italy. Certainly not Melnichenko , one of the richest men in the world with an estimated wealth of 27.5 billion, mainly related to coal and fertilizer.

Italian institutions long ago received a notice saying the yacht does not belong to Melnichenko, but to a trust managed by an independent trustee with whom the oligarch denies having any relationship. The dispute resulted in a legal battle between the state and the ownership of the mega yacht, represented by major law firms.

Now the ball has passed into the hands of the European Court of Justice, which must rule on a preliminary ruling that was requested by the Lazio Regional Administrative Court. It all revolves around the interpretation of the  2014 EU Regulation 269  on sanctions and the actual allocation of ownership of the yacht. The companies flowing into the trust challenged the asset freeze, claiming ownership. Will the Italian state be able to recover the costs incurred in maintaining the boat?

Italian law stipulates that in the event that the seizure does not become final and the owning company wants to get the yacht back, it would first have to pay all the maintenance fees and until it does so, based on the right of retention that any shipyard has with respect to the assets it guards, it cannot get the yacht back. We shall – for quite a while yet – see.

One of the largest megayachts in the world turns heads in Malaga marina again

One of the largest megayachts in the world, the 141-metre-long Yas, has cruised into Malaga’s marina for luxury vessels again.

It is the second visit by the colossal craft, a former Dutch navy frigate, and it remains the largest to moor in the city centre facility. In the process, it has put many of the Muelle Uno restaurants and shops in the shade - literally.

The Yas, as it is known today, is actually the second life of another ship. Named Swift141 during her reconstruction, the Yas is based on the hull of an old frigate; Piet Hein, a Kortenaer class frigate of the Royal Netherlands Navy. She was launched in 1978 and later sold to the United Arab Emirates Navy, where she operated under the name Al Emirat. This practice is not that rare, as a second frigate of the same class is in fact undergoing a similar conversion; the Abraham Crijnssen, renamed Abu Dhabi.

One of the most impressive features of the Yas is its size. It is 141-metres-long and has several swimming pools and helipad. Its interior was created by French designers House Pierrejean Vision Design Studio.

The megayacht is capable of carrying up to 60 guests and 56 crew members. The facilities include a beauty salon and a lift. Powered by two diesel engines, she cruises comfortably at 23 knots, with a top speed of 26 knots and a range of up to 5,758 nautical miles.

The ship belongs to Hamdan Bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Prince of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates, so it can be considered the official yacht of the Emirati crown. Known as Fazza, 40, the prince is very active on social media, where he has more than 12 million followers. With his snapshots, you can get a closer look at his luxury day-to-day life in Dubai.

What Dreams Are Made Of: The $500M Avanguardia Mega Yacht Concept

Pierpaolo Lazzarini is a millennial Italian designer who has become known for his visions and concepts which are lightyears ahead. His portfolio includes automotive, aerospace, architecture, and yacht design with extremely unique and innovative prototypes. He defines his team at Lazzarini Design Studio as a group of designers, engineers, and dreamers. His mantra, ‘Think about the future but never forget the past,’ is clearly visible in his art.

In the 1990s, Luca Bassani Antivari revolutionized the yachting industry with his Wally yachts by pioneering carbon fiber as a building material; apart from that, boating structures have remained pretty standard until Lazzarini broke into the field with his revolutionary futuristic ideas.

Since being highly praised and awarded for his Jet Capsule design, a small egg-shaped fiberglass yacht, Lazzarini’s focus has been on innovative boat shapes. As such, the studio has recently unveiled its latest watercraft concept: Avanguardia , a 137-meter swan-shaped mega yacht. Lazzarini’s design, inspired by a 1970’s Japanese anime, includes a control tower cockpit positioned in the front of the yacht and appearing like the head of a swan (as seen in the Lazzarini Design Studio logo). This cockpit acts as a 16-meter boat that can disconnect when the flexible neck crane extends itself 157 meters forward. When the independent boat is set free of the yacht, the top part of Avanguardia becomes the auxiliary control tower. The neck crane then retreats back toward the yacht like a swan tucking its head under its wing to sleep, enabling the yacht to reach a max cruising speed of 18 knots.

This incredible power is provided by twin fully electric side engines and a central MTU Rolls-Royce engine. Two of Lazzarini’s Jet Capsules are connected to the rear deck and used as auxiliary propulsion or, when disconnected, work independently as mini-jet cruisers. Avanguardia is split into five decks and could fit up to 60 passengers, providing accommodation for up to 10 crew, 12 staff, and 24 guests. The top level is equipped with helipads and one helicopter, while amidship is a garage for storing luxurious vehicles, and why not one of Lazzarini’s extravagant electric limousines?

Although Avanguardia is still a concept, the team has always been focused on creating prototypes that are not just animations. The design studio is looking for a client ready to invest $500M to see this beautiful swan spread its wings and sail the blue sea.

When asked “Why a swan?” Lazzarini answered that he finds in nature a source of inspiration for its innate perfection; he chose the swan, as by definition, it is the symbol of elegance and grace.

Avanguardia is just the first of six animal-shaped Lazzarini-designed yachts that will be presented over time.

The nearly 400-foot-long yacht was reported to cost more than $300 million to construct. It is owned by 38-year-old Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko.

By Melonie Magruder / Special to The Malibu Times

Those who spent the weekend at or near the beach might have believed that James Bond was visiting Malibu. Or maybe Captain Nemo. The appearance of the mega-yacht anchored just east of the Malibu Pier was enough to spark interest up and down the immediate coastline.

The “A” is the latest toy of 38-year-old Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko, who has made his money through the banking, steel and fertilizer industries. The unusual hull on the ship, designed by consumer modernist Philippe Starck, has inspired raves and jeers among yacht enthusiasts and, apparently, nudged several companies involved with the customized construction of the yacht into bankruptcy. It was reported to cost more than $300 million to construct.

According to numerous reports, the yacht has three pools, including a high-powered jet pool for laps that can be switched from salt to fresh water; 23,600 square feet of living space, including a 2,583-square-foot master suite wrapped in bomb-proof, 44-milimeter glass; custom finishes such as bath knobs priced at $40,000 each and comfort features like Baccarat crystal tables, mahogany walls and alligator-hide chairs.

The 24,000-horsepower engines run on gas tanks that cost more than $500,000 to fill and the yacht requires at least $20 million per year to maintain.

Mayor Jefferson “Zuma Jay” Wagner said that no other ship in the world currently is built to the same high technical standards as “A.”

He should know because the mayor got a first-hand look, which is a rare treat since it has been widely reported that the reclusive Melnichenko rarely lets anybody but his Serbian model wife Aleksandra Nikolic Melnichenkoor and the estimated 35 crew members aboard the yacht.

“I paddled out to the yacht in my kayak,” Wagner said. “I presented the crew member who greeted me with my business card zipped up in a baggie, and he invited me aboard.”

Wagner said the yacht was “gorgeous to look at,” but what he appreciated most was the well-maintained, “Lloyds of London 100-plus” quality standard.

“There is no other ship like this,” Wagner said. “Reported speed is about 23 knots, but I believe it can go up to 35.”

Wagner said local maritime rules stipulate that ships must anchor 300 yards offshore or 900 feet from the mean high-tide line on the beach and that the “A” con formed to requirements.

“I did mention to the crew member that Malibu had several fine dining options,” he said. “I recommended they take advantage of being in the neighborhood, and he said that he would pass along the tip. I believe they went to Geoffrey’s for dinner.”

Geoffrey’s management declined to confirm whether the restaurant received a visit.

“We maintain the privacy of all our guests,” a Geoffrey’s manager said. “But we did see the ship.”

Former Planning Commissioner Ed Gillespie, who brokers sales for yachts, referred to the vessel as a “giga yacht.”

“At 394 feet, it’s actually smaller than (Oracle Corp. CEO) Larry Ellison’s yacht, which is 458 feet,” Gillespie said. “I saw Ellison’s sailboat ‘Zenji’ up at Paradise Cove this weekend. So maybe the billionaires were having a little yacht party.”

Gillespie speculated that the “A” wasn’t able to berth in Marina del Rey because of its size.

“Marina del Rey averages 15 feet in depth and the ‘A’ draws at least 17 feet,” Gillespie said. “And its beam measures 62 feet. That’s really wide. It just wouldn’t fit.”

The “A” was still in Malibu as of Monday night.

“It sure turns heads,” said Gillespie, a bit wistfully. “I wouldn’t mind taking a ride.”

Inside The Billion Dollar Mega-Yacht Dubbed ‘Colossea’ — With Its Own Airship

A civilian luxury aircraft carrier ? Well, that's what one new mega-yacht concept resembles.

Plans for a $1 billion mega-yacht dubbed Colossea have surfaced online, showing its own detachable airship, Knewz.com has learned.

The 699-foot mega-yacht, designed by Italian design studio Lazzarini , releases the craft from electromagnetic blocks that keep it mounted until it's time to take a flight.

According to The U.S. Sun , passengers receive five-star treatment that includes a large pool on the top deck near the helicopter launch pad.

A video featuring the vessel and its aircraft shows them traveling in formation with a cheeky plea for funding that reads " Elon [Musk] , get in touch."

The massive vessel, which is capable of carrying 22,000 pounds in payload, can accommodate up to 24 passengers, along with 20 crew members.

The super-yacht has 22 guest suites with several pools, indoor and outdoor.

"On the Colossea yacht, the airship reimagines its iconic design with the materials and technologies of today , proposing the same measurements of the 1924's model with upgraded materials, layout and propulsion," Lazzarini states.

"The Colossea mega-yacht is an itinerant floating docking station for the detachable airship. Colossea is a concept design, but the estimated cost for the real construction is about $1B."

According to The New York Post , Colossea's design is a tribute to the N1 airship Norge, which made the first-ever trip of any kind to the North Pole approximately a century ago.

However, the aircraft included in the vessel is a new concept. The yacht includes a landing strip that is specialized for the aircraft.

While the mega-yacht is only a concept, it would cost $1 billion to come to fruition, according to Lazzarini.

While Colossea is unique with its aircraft, another super-yacht that can transform into a submarine .

As Knewz.com reported on December 7, a German company, Migaloo, reports it is developing a boat that doubles as a yacht and a submarine.

The M5_2023 was unveiled in June. It's promoted by Migaloo online as not only “the future of yachting,” but the “ultimate expression of personal uniqueness.”

Migaloo calls it the world’s first “private submersible superyacht.” It’s longer than a U.S. football field, measuring more than 160 yards long.

But an online statement by founder Christian Gumpold says today’s yacht owners want something more than a long, powerful boat.

“Owners are looking for privacy, security and protection for themselves, their guests and their valuables,” Gumpold says.

So to ensure “the greatest possible exclusivity and limitation,” Migaloo offers a “private floating habitat” to park the superyacht.

“Kokomo Ailand” is probably much smaller than the place “off the Florida Keys” that became a hit song . It’s about the length of a football field, with “living palm trees,” a pool and a penthouse on one of five different decks.

But in case the seas get rough, the M5_2023 can go as deep as 750 feet underwater and stay there for as long as four weeks. It can travel 20 knots above the surface and 12 knots below it.

You can move the island as well, if you wish. It can travel 9 mph.

This super-yacht is a $2 billion concept.

By Katia Damborsky   27 July 2018

New video footage reveals the freshly refurbished interiors inside the 83m/271ft  luxury yacht O'MEGA .

One of the largest charter yachts available in Greece , O’MEGA was built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in 2004 and underwent a refit in 2015 by Italian design house Studio Vafiadis. Her sophisticated new look is now ready to be showcased in time for the summer season.

With the capacity to sleep up to 30 charter guests, O’MEGA is an impressive feat of engineering that is perfect for larger groups looking to experience a private yacht charter. She can be accessed via her private limousine tender, and is instantly recognisable from afar thanks to her sleek white exterior complete with polished lines and concave shapes.

Her interior is similarly elegant, featuring arctic white tones infused with classic dark wood and vibrant pops of blue. 

Taking full advantage of her size, she includes ample outdoor space. A Jacuzzi lined with sunpads can be found on the sundeck, along with a shaded al fresco dining area that will prove popular with charter guests looking to admire the Grecian views in the comfort of the shade.

There are further spaces to dine both inside and outdoors, making her a flexible charter option that suits the needs of all of her guests.

The refit has also upgraded the salons, which are now refined and enjoyable places to relax and socialise. She includes a state-of-the-art cinema and a gym with plenty of facilities to appease guests looking to exercise while afloat.

As seen in the video, O’MEGA is an impressive motor yacht that exudes grandeur and grace. She would be perfect for guests looking to host an event charter on account of her size and her on-board entertainment facilities.

In order to find out more regarding M/Y O’MEGA, please get in touch with your preferred charter broker today.

CSEM PhD Program

The University of Texas at Austin offers the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree with a major in Computational Science, Engineering, and Mathematics (CSEM). We seek students who are committed to excellence, desire expertise in multiple disciplines, and are willing to take on new challenges while working alongside faculty involved in research at the forefront of computational science. CSEM doctoral students complete advanced coursework in applied mathematics, computer science, and in fields representing the application area. Graduates of the CSEM PhD Program have made significant contributions to research, academia, and technology.

Within this graduate studies program, each student must develop a program of study and research in Computational Science, Engineering, and Mathematics that includes a substantial component from each of the three CSEM concentration areas:

Applied mathematics

Area A encompasses the mathematical theory and foundations underlying the scientific models and computational science addressed in the overall research effort. It may involve, for example, functional analysis, partial differential equations, differential geometry, probability, data science, optimization, and approximation theory.

Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computation

Area B encompasses all areas of algorithms and computational simulation, as well as their development, verification, and analysis. It often covers, for example, issues of numerical stability and approximation, scientific programming, visualization, parallel computation, software design, and high performance computing.

Mathematical Modeling & Applications

Area C encompasses the scientific principles of the natural, engineered, social, or other system that motivates the research and aims to foster some scientific or societal goal through computational modeling and simulation. With the assistance of a CSEM faculty member, all students are expected to develop a concentration of coursework in a well-defined discipline of science, engineering, medicine, economics or the social sciences. Examples include physics, chemistry, biology, geology, biomedicine, all disciplines of engineering, and other areas of science and medicine that form the basis for developing mathematical and computational models.

CSEM has two degree options. Upon entering the program, each student must select an option.

The Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAM) option stresses the mathematical (Area A) side of the program, and is suited more to students with a solid undergraduate background in mathematics. This option also allows the student more time to explore and develop interests regarding an application topic for Area C.

The Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) option stresses the application area (Area C) and allows more time to develop graduate level proficiency in applicable mathematics (Area A). This option is suited to undergraduate engineering, science, and business students who generally know the application area of their interest, but who desire a slower-paced introduction to the intellectual demands of graduate level mathematics.

Every student is required to have a faculty dissertation advisor (or co-advisors). The primary advisor must be chosen from the CSEM Graduate Studies Committee (GSC) . The student must select an advisor willing to serve as a mentor, supervise the dissertation, and give advice on coursework. A dissertation advisor need not be selected until the end of the second long semester of the student's studies. Prior to the selection of a dissertation advisor, the CSEM Graduate Advisor will appoint a faculty mentor who, along with the Graduate Advisor, will advise the student on coursework and progress in the program.

After completing the first-year sequence, students must complete the following additional coursework by the end of the seventh long semester:

• Area A : two graduate level courses (6 credit hours) approved by the Graduate Advisor. At least two courses (6 credit hours) of all Area A coursework must be listed or cross-listed with the Mathematics Department.
• Area B : two graduate level courses (6 credit hours) approved by the Graduate Advisor. If deemed appropriate by the student's advisor and the Graduate Advisor, up to 3 credit hours may be taken at the undergraduate (upper-division) level.
• Area C : two graduate level courses (6 credit hours) in some application area consistent with the student's proposed research area, approved by both the student's dissertation advisor and the Graduate Advisor. If deemed appropriate by the student's advisor and the Graduate Advisor, up to 3 credit hours may be taken at the undergraduate (upper-division) level.

At the end of the first full academic year, the student is required to demonstrate a graduate level proficiency in CSEM Areas A, B, and C by taking and passing a written preliminary examination in each area. These exams cover the subject material of the first year courses taken by the student.

A student failing any of the preliminary exams will be required by the examining committee to do one of the following:

• take a make-up exam before the start of the Fall semester
• repeat that particular exam the following year
• leave the program

See the preliminary exams page for more info.

The student and dissertation advisor must recommend to the Graduate Advisor a dissertation committee to pose the qualifying exam and evaluate the dissertation. The dissertation committee must consist of the advisor and at least four additional faculty members. The committee must include at least one CSEM Graduate Studies Committee faculty member representing Area A, a second representing Area B, and a third representing Area C, not including the student's advisor. Moreover, at least three of the committee members must represent distinct UT departments through positive time appointment. The Graduate Advisor must approve the composition of the committee. Minimum committee requirements summarized below:

• CSEM GSC faculty member from Area A
• CSEM GSC faculty member from Area B
• CSEM GSC faculty member from Area C
• Additional faculty member (must NOT be on the CSEM GSC)

Before the end of the sixth long semester, the student must propose research for their PhD dissertation.

The student must write a concise abstract of the dissertation proposal. The abstract must address how each of the three CSEM Concentration Areas A, B, and C will be addressed in, and form an integral part of, the proposed research ( Abstract Guidelines ). The student must meet with each member of his or her dissertation committee to discuss the abstract, the expertise the committee member will contribute to the dissertation, and the background knowledge expected of the student, as well as the types of questions that might be asked at the proposal presentation (see Dissertation Proposal Presentation section below.) The abstract must be signed by each member of the committee. Before the dissertation proposal presentation may be scheduled, this abstract must be submitted to and approved by the Graduate Studies Subcommittee (GSSC.) Submit the abstract in pdf format to the Graduate Coordinator who will make it available to the GSSC for review.

The student must write his or her dissertation proposal and submit it to each member of the dissertation committee, and to the Graduate Coordinator. The format of the proposal must conform to the CSEM PhD Proposal Requirements .

Dissertation Proposal Presentation

Approximately two weeks after submission of the written dissertation proposal, the student is required to give a private, oral presentation of the proposal to his or her dissertation committee. The presentation itself should be about 45 minutes in length. The committee will then examine the student to explore details of the proposal and to test his or her general background knowledge relevant to the proposed research, including the ability to integrate ideas from Areas A, B, and C. The committee will expect somewhat greater depth and breadth in Area A as opposed to Area C for students in the CAM option, and the opposite for students in the CSE option.

Once you have scheduled the proposal presentation, you must notify the Graduate Coordinator of the date, time, and room number.

The student's performance is satisfactory if the committee agrees, with at most one dissenting vote, that the student developed a sufficiently rich, original and interdisciplinary research program and demonstrated competence to complete the proposed research. In the event of an unsatisfactory performance, the committee is charged with explaining to the student the reasons that his or her performance was not satisfactory. The committee may impose requirements on the student, such as requiring changes to the proposal, additional coursework, and/or another presentation to be given within one year.

The Candidacy Checklist outlines the steps for entering candidacy, from the formation of the dissertation committee to the submission of the candidacy application to the Graduate School.

After completing all coursework, preliminary examination, and proposal requirements, the student must submit a Graduate School application for candidacy. The CSEM Graduate Coordinator will send instructions for submitting the application once the student's advisor has confirmed that student has passed the proposal.

Information for scheduling your defense may be found at CSEM Defense Guidelines .

Generally, by the end of the tenth long semester, and definitely before the end of the fourteenth long semester, students must prepare a written dissertation of the results of their research and provide a copy to each member of their PhD dissertation committee and to the Graduate Coordinator. This dissertation must be presented in a seminar of about 45 minutes that is open to the public, and it must be announced publicly to CSEM faculty and students within the Oden Institute. Immediately after the presentation, the student will meet privately with the dissertation committee to face questions and orally defend the work. The dissertation committee will judge whether the dissertation and the oral defense are acceptable.

Both the dissertation and the oral defense must follow appropriate Graduate School requirements and procedures found on the Deadlines and Submission Instructions page.

Each student is expected to regularly attend regularly Oden Institute sponsored seminars. The GSSC will set the number required each semester.

Each student is required to submit an annual progress report of coursework, research activities, and financial support. Students not making satisfactory progress to the degree will be given specific requirements that must be met to return to good standing in the program.

Students failing to satisfy the requirements of the program in a timely manner will be put on probation by the GSSC, and their progress will be monitored closely. The student will remain on probation until satisfactory progress is achieved. A student may remain on probation for a maximum of two long semesters. A student who has been on probation for a total of two long semesters and is found to be out of compliance with the timely requirements of the program will not be allowed to continue in the program.

Students may appeal to or petition the CSEM GSSC for waiver or alteration of any CSEM requirement, except for waiver of an exam or waiver of a Graduate School degree requirement. Written appeals or petitions should be submitted to the GSSC through either the Graduate Advisor or the CSEM Graduate Studies Committee Chair.

PhD in Computational Sciences and Engineering

The  PhD in CSE  is a highly interdisciplinary program designed to provide students with practical skills and theoretical understandings needed to become leaders in the field of computational science and engineering. The program emphasizes the integration and application of principles from mathematics, science, engineering and computing to create computational models for solving real-world problems. Applicants to the CSE PhD program might want to consider applying to the  FLAMEL program .

Curricular Requirements.  Students are required to complete at least 31 hours of coursework, as follows.

• CSE 6001 (Introduction to CSE, 1 hour),
• CSE core courses (12 hours),
• Computation specialization (9 hours),
• Application specialization (9 hours).

To complete the core course requirement students must complete four of the five courses making up the core curriculum: CSE/ Math 6643  (Numerical Linear Algebra), CSE 6140 (CSE Algorithms), CSE 6730 (Modeling and Simulation: Fundamentals & Implementation), CSE/ISYE 6740 (Computational Data Analysis), CSE 6220 (High Performance Computing).

The computational specialization includes at least 9 hours of courses that increase the student's depth of understanding of computational methods in a specific area, as approved by the student's academic advisor. These courses must go beyond "using computers" to deepen understanding of computational methods, preferably in the context of some application domain.

The application specialization includes at least 9 hours of courses that increase depth of understanding in an application field; these need not be computation-focused courses. At least nine hours of PhD courses must be courses that do not carry the CS/CSE course designation. Hours taken as part of the computation and/or application specialization can be used to fulfill this requirement.

Math Students.  Students who choose Mathematics as their home unit are required to take at least 9 hours having the MATH course designation (and not cross listed with other departments), and are expected to have a strong background in Mathematics.  

Qualifying Exam.  A written qualifying examination must be attempted by the end of the second year of enrollment in the CSE doctoral program (normally taken after the student completes CSE core coursework). The oral qualifying exam part may be combined with the Oral Comprehensive exam, with the approval of the CSE Math home unit coordinator. If there are concerns with the written qualifying exam (determined by the Math home unit coordinator), the student is required to have a separate oral qualifying exam following the format as CSE. 

Oral Qualifying Exam.  This covers both a computational artifact and the student's specialization area of Applied and Computational Mathematics. The specialization part of the exam follows the Oral Comprehensive Exam format of the Math PhD program. A part of the oral presentation should have a section on computational artifacts. The computational artifact part will follow the same format as for all CSE PhD students.

Doctoral Thesis.  Students are required to complete a doctoral thesis reporting the results of independent research that advance the state-of-the-art in the CSE discipline. The dissertation must be successfully defended to the students dissertation research committee.

For further details, please see the CSE Graduate Student Handbook .

APPLICATION DEADLINE

Questions about the program.

Ph.D. Program

The degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Mathematics and Computational Science is conferred in recognition of marked ability and high attainment in advanced applied and computational mathematics, including the successful completion of a significant original research project. The program typically takes four to five years to complete, although this length may vary depending on the student. Below, we describe the requirements and expectations of the program. All graduate students require a 3.0 GPA to graduate (no exceptions).

Written Preliminary Exam

Upon entry into the Ph.D. program, students are required to take the Written Preliminary Exam, typically scheduled the week before classes start in the Fall semester. The coverage of the exam is in Linear Algebra, Advanced Calculus, Complex Variables, and Probability at the undergraduate level. Details of the exam can be found here: Preliminary Exam Details

The student must pass the exam to continue as a Ph.D. student. The Written Exam is offered in April and August. If the student fails on the first attempt, two more attempts are granted (three attempts total).

Course Requirements

The student must take the following six core courses:

• Analysis: AMCS 6081/6091 (MATH 6080/6090)
• Numerical Analysis: AMCS 6025/6035
• Probability and Stochastic Processes: AMCS 6481/6491 (MATH 6480/6490)

These six core courses are to be completed in the first and second years of graduate studies.

Ten elective courses (a total of 14 courses) are required for graduation. These elective courses should be chosen according to the interests and/or research program of the student and must contain significant mathematical content. Whether a given course can be counted toward AMCS elective course credit will be decided in consultation with the Graduate Chair. Recent courses approved for elective credit can be discussed with your advisor and the Graduate Group Chair.

Deviations from the above may be necessary or recommended depending on the individual student; such decisions are made with the approval of the graduate chair.

Choosing an Advisor

In the first two years of graduate studies, students must choose their thesis advisor. Some students already have an advisor to whom they have committed upon entry to the program. Other students will typically start working with their prospective advisors in the latter half of the first year or the summer between the first and second year.

The purpose of the oral exam is to assess a student’s readiness to transition into full-time research and eventually write his or her dissertation. This exam will be taken by the end of the third year of graduate study.

First, an oral exam committee must be formed, consisting of three faculty members, two of whom must belong to the AMCS graduate faculty. The student must then produce a document of up to about 20 pages describing the research proposal and background material, which is then approved by the oral exam committee before the exam. In the exam, the student will give an oral presentation to the committee. A discussion with the committee follows this. In the oral exam, the committee may ask the student about the presentation as well as about necessary background material as seen fit by the committee. If the student fails this exam, the student will have one more attempt.

Dissertation and Defense

The dissertation must be a substantial original investigation in the field of applied mathematics and computational science, done under the supervision of a faculty advisor. A Ph.D. Thesis Committee consists of at least three faculty members, including the thesis advisor. When the dissertation is complete, it must be defended in a Dissertation Exam, at which the student will be expected to give a short public exposition of the results of the thesis and to satisfactorily answer questions about the thesis and related areas.

Teaching Assistant

Full-time students admitted to our Ph.D. program who are offered a financial support package for four years of study are required to be teaching assistants during the second year. Students for whom English is not their native language are required to pass a test the “Speak Test” (IELTS) demonstrating proficiency in English. More information can be found on the English Language Programs  web page.

Academics Graduate Study

The Department of Engineering Sciences and Applied Mathematics offers two graduate programs in engineering sciences and applied mathematics: a master of science program and a doctoral program. Qualified students with backgrounds in engineering, mathematics, or science are eligible for admission to either program.

Not all of our incoming graduate students have a bachelor of science in math. Many have degrees in engineering or science. The first-year courses are designed in such a way that a common applied math background is formed for all the students, regardless of their undergraduate background.

We offer the following graduate degrees through Northwestern University’s Graduate School:

Faculty Research

The applied mathematics faculty is involved in research that utilizes and invents a variety of mathematical methods associated with asymptotic analysis, bifurcation theory, graph theory, numerical analysis, optimal control, ordinary and partial differential equations, probability and statistics, singular perturbations, stability theory, and stochastic processes.

These methods are employed in the investigation of problems arising in areas
 like biomechanics, fluid mechanics, geophysics, materials science, molecular biology, neurobiology, solid mechanics, statistical mechanics, and wave phenomena, to name a few.

What Does a PhD in Maths Involve?

Maths is a vast subject, both in breadth and in depth. As such, there’s a significant number of different areas you can research as a math student. These areas usually fall into one of three categories: pure mathematics, applied mathematics or statistics. Some examples of topics you can research are:

• Number theory
• Numerical analysis
• String theory
• Random matrix theory
• Graph theory
• Quantum mechanics
• Statistical forecasting
• Matroid theory
• Control theory

Besides this, because maths focuses on addressing interdisciplinary real-world problems, you may work and collaborate with other STEM researchers. For example, your research topic may relate to:

• Biomechanics and transport processes
• Evidence-based medicine
• Fluid dynamics
• Financial mathematics
• Machine learning
• Theoretical and Computational Optimisation

What you do day-to-day will largely depend on your specific research topic. However, you’ll likely:

• Continually read literature – This will be to help develop your knowledge and identify current gaps in the overall body of knowledge surrounding your research topic.
• Undertake research specific to your topic – This can include defining ideas, proving theorems and identifying relationships between models.
• Collect and analyse data – This could comprise developing computational models, running simulations and interpreting forecasts etc.
• Liaise with others – This could take many forms. For example, you may work shoulder-to-shoulder with individuals from different disciplines supporting your research, e.g. Computer scientists for machine learning-based projects. Alternatively, you may need frequent input from those who supplied the data for your research, e.g. Financial institutions or biological research colleagues.
• Attend a wide range of lectures, seminars and events.

Browse PhD Opportunities in Mathematics

Application of artificial intelligence to multiphysics problems in materials design, study of the human-vehicle interactions by a high-end dynamic driving simulator, physical layer algorithm design in 6g non-terrestrial communications, machine learning for autonomous robot exploration, detecting subtle but clinically significant cognitive change in an ageing population, how long does it take to get a phd in maths.

The average programme duration for a mathematics PhD in the UK is 3 to 4 years for a full-time studying. Although not all universities offer part-time maths PhD programmes, those that do have a typical programme duration of 5 to 7 years.

Again, although the exact arrangement will depend on the university, most maths doctorates will require you to first register for an MPhil . At the end of your first year, your supervisor will assess your progress to decide whether you should be registered for a PhD.

Additional Learning Modules

Some Mathematics departments will require you to enrol on to taught modules as part of your programme. These are to help improve your knowledge and understanding of broader subjects within your field, for example, Fourier Analysis, Differential Geometry and Riemann Surfaces. Even if taught modules aren’t compulsory in several universities, your supervisor will still encourage you to attend them for your development.

Most UK universities will also have access to specialised mathematical training courses. The most common of these include Pure Mathematics courses hosted by Mathematics Access Grid Conferencing ( MAGIC ) and London Taught Course Centre ( LTCC ) and Statistics courses hosted by Academy for PhD Training in Statistics ( APTS ).

What Are the Typical Entry Requirements for A PhD in Maths?

In the UK, the typical entry requirements for a Maths PhD is an upper second-class (2:1) Master’s degree (or international equivalent) in Mathematics or Statistics [1] .

However, there is some variation on this. From writing, the lowest entry requirement is an upper second-class (2:1) Bachelor’s degree in any math-related subject. The highest entry requirement is a first-class (1st) honours Master’s degree in a Mathematics or Statistics degree only.

It’s worth noting if you’re applying to a position which comes with funding provided directly by the Department, the entry requirements will usually be on the higher side because of their competitiveness.

In terms of English Language requirements, most mathematics departments require at least an overall IELTS (International English Language Testing System) score of 6.5, with no less than 6.0 in each individual subtest.

Tips to Consider when Making Your Application

When applying to any mathematics PhD, you’ll be expected to have a good understanding of both your subject field and the specific research topic you are applying to. To help show this, it’s advisable that you demonstrate recent engagement in your research topic. This could be by describing the significance of a research paper you recently read and outlining which parts interested you the most, and why. Additionally, you can discuss a recent mathematics event you attended and suggest ways in how what you learnt might apply to your research topic.

As with most STEM PhDs, most maths PhD professors prefer you to discuss your application with them directly before putting in a formal application. The benefits of this is two folds. First, you’ll get more information on what their department has to offer. Second, the supervisor can better discover your interest in the project and gauge whether you’d be a suitable candidate. Therefore, we encourage you to contact potential supervisors for positions you’re interested in before making any formal applications.

How Much Does a Maths PhD Typically Cost?

The typical tuition fee for a PhD in Maths in the UK is £4,407 per year for UK/EU students and £20,230 per year for international students. This, alongside the range in tuition fees you can expect, is summarised below:

Note: The above tuition fees are based on 12 UK Universities [1]  for 2020/21 Mathematic PhD positions. The typical fee has been taken as the median value.

In addition to the above, it’s not unheard of for research students to be charged a bench fee. In case you’re unfamiliar with a bench fee, it’s an annual fee additional to your tuition, which covers the cost of specialist equipment or resources associated with your research. This can include the upkeep of supercomputers you may use, training in specialist analysis software, or travelling to conferences. The exact fee will depend on your specific research topic; however, it should be minimal for most mathematic projects.

What Specific Funding Opportunities Are There for A PhD in Mathematics?

Alongside the usual funding opportunities available to all PhD Research students such as doctoral loans, departmental scholarships, there are a few other sources of funding available to math PhD students. Examples of these include:

You can find more information on these funding sources here: DiscoverPhDs funding guide .

What Specific Skills Do You Gain from Doing a PhD in Mathematics?

A doctorate in Mathematics not only demonstrates your commitment to continuous learning, but it also provides you with highly marketable skills. Besides subject-specific skills, you’ll also gain many transferable skills which will prove useful in almost all industries. A sample of these skills is listed below.

• Logical ability to consider and analyse complex issues,
• Commitment and persistence towards reaching research goals,
• Outstanding verbal and written skills,
• Strong attention to detail,
• The ability to liaise with others from unique disciple backgrounds and work as part of a team
• Holistic deduction and reasoning skills,
• Forming and explaining mathematical and logical solutions to a wide range of real-world problems,
• Exceptional numeracy skills.

What Jobs Can You Get with A Maths PhD?

One of the greatest benefits maths PostDocs will have is the ability to pursue a wide range of career paths. This is because all sciences are built on core principles which, to varying extents, are supported by the core principles of mathematics. As a result, it’s not uncommon to ask students what path they intend to follow after completing their degree and receive entirely different answers. Although not extensive by any means, the most common career paths Math PostDocs take are listed below:

• Academia – Many individuals teach undergraduate students at the university they studied at or ones they gained ties to during their research. This path is usually the preferred among students who want to continue focusing on mathematical theories and concepts as part of their career.
• Postdoctoral Researcher – Others continue researching with their University or with an independent organisation. This can be a popular path because of the opportunities it provides in collaborative working, supervising others, undertaking research and attending conferences etc.
• Finance – Because of their deepened analytical skills, it’s no surprise that many PostDocs choose a career in finance. This involves working for some of the most significant players in the financial district in prime locations including London, Frankfurt and Hong Kong. Specific job titles can include Actuarial, Investment Analyst or Risk Modeller.
• Computer Programming – Some students whose research involves computational mathematics launch their career as a computer programmer. Due to their background, they’ll typically work on specialised projects which require high levels of understanding on the problem at hand. For example, they may work with physicists and biomedical engineers to develop a software package that supports their more complex research.
• Data Analyst – Those who enjoy number crunching and developing complex models often go into data analytics. This can involve various niches such as forecasting or optimisation, across various fields such as marketing and weather.

What Are Some of The Typical Employers Who Hire Maths PostDocs?

As mentioned above, there’s a high demand for skilled mathematicians and statisticians across a broad range of sectors. Some typical employers are:

• Education – All UK and international universities
• Governments – STFC and Department for Transport
• Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals – NHS, GSK, Pfizer
• Finance & Banking – e.g. Barclays Capital, PwC and J. P. Morgan
• Computing – IBM, Microsoft and Facebook
• Engineering – Boeing, Shell and Dyson

The above is only a small selection of employers. In reality, mathematic PostDocs can work in almost any industry, assuming the role is numerical-based or data-driven.

How Much Can You Earn with A PhD in Maths?

As a mathematics PhD PostDoc, your earning potential will mostly depend on your chosen career path. Due to the wide range of options, it’s impossible to provide an arbitrary value for the typical salary you can expect.

However, if you pursue one of the below paths or enter their respective industry, you can roughly expect to earn [3] :

Academic Lecturer

• Approximately £30,000 – £35,000 starting salary
• Approximately £40,000 with a few years experience
• Approximately £45,000 – £55,000 with 10 years experience
• Approximately £60,000 and over with significant experience and a leadership role. Certain academic positions can earn over £80,000 depending on the management duties.

Actuary or Finance

• Approximately £35,000 starting salary
• Approximately £45,000 – £55,000 with a few years experience
• Approximately £70,000 and over with 10 years experience
• Approximately £180,000 and above with significant experience and a leadership role.

Aerospace or Mechanical Engineering

• Approximately £28,000 starting salary
• Approximately £35,000 – £40,000 with a few years experience
• Approximately £60,000 and over with 10 years experience

Data Analyst

• Approximately £45,000 – £50,000 with a few years experience
• Approximately £90,000 and above with significant experience and a leadership role.

Again, we stress that the above are indicative values only. Actual salaries will depend on the specific organisation and position and responsibilities of the individual.

Facts and Statistics About Maths PhD Holders

The below chart provides useful insight into the destination of Math PostDocs after completing their PhD. The most popular career paths from other of highest to lowest is education, information and communication, finance and scientific research, manufacturing and government.

Note: The above chart is based on ‘UK Higher Education Leavers’ data [2] between 2012/13 and 2016/17 and contains a data size of 200 PostDocs. The data was obtained from the Higher Education Statistics Agency ( HESA ).

Which Noteworthy People Hold a PhD in Maths?

Alan turing.

Alan Turing was a British Mathematician, WW2 code-breaker and arguably the father of computer science. Alongside his lengthy list of achievements, Turning achieved a PhD in Mathematics at Princeton University, New Jersey. His thesis titled ‘Systems of Logic Based on Ordinals’ focused on the concepts of ordinal logic and relative computing; you can read it online here . To this day, Turning pioneering works continues to play a fundamental role in shaping the development of artificial intelligence (AI).

Degree Designation

In accordance with an agreement between CGU and CSULB, the degree is designated the  Doctorate of Philosophy in Engineering and Computational Mathematics  and is granted at Claremont Graduate University in the name of the two universities. The diploma indicates the dual nature of the degree and specifies that it is granted only when requirements have been satisfied in both subject areas as specified by the collaborating institutions.​

Program Supervision

Overall program supervision is the responsibility of the Program Committee , consisting of the directors of the Joint Doctoral Program (JDP) from each institution, the Dean of Mathematics at CGU, and the Dean of Engineering at CSULB.

Admission Requirements

Students must be admitted to both institutions jointly. Admission will be granted to a limited number of qualified students; therefore, application should be made as early as possible. Applications from underrepresented minorities are encouraged. Completed applications must be received by  April 15 for the fall semester  or  October 1 for the spring semester , although late applications are allowed at the discretion of the Program Committee. The Program Committee is responsible for making admission decisions consistent with campus regulations (see Application Procedure in this booklet).

To be admitted to the Joint Doctoral Program, an applicant must have received a bachelor’s or master’s degree in science, engineering, or mathematics from an accredited institution. Moreover, he or she must have attained scholastic records and present confidential recommendations, which indicate that he or she is well qualified to pursue, with distinction, advanced study and research. Be advised that admission may be refused solely on the basis of limited facilities in the option desired.

GRE Requirement

The analytical, verbal, and quantitative portion of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is required before admission. GRE subject examinations (mathematics and engineering) are not required. Applicants whose first or native language is  not  English are required to have a  current  minimum score of 80 ibt on the  Test of English as a Foreign Language  (TOEFL); however, this requirement is waived for students with a bachelor’s or master’s degree from an accredited U. S. university.

Registration and Enrollment

It is important that students register and enroll in classes each semester at either CGU or CSULB. Failure to enroll at any given semester will be considered leave without permission (discontinued enrollment) and the student will be dropped from the program.

Program Planning and Supervision

At CSULB, an initial engineering advisor is assigned to the student at the time of admission. At CGU, the student needs to arrange with the program director, within the first semester of study, for a mathematics advisor. The student’s program of study is arranged individually in collaboration with their advisors; the two advisors confer periodically regarding the student’s progress. The Program Committee monitors the student’s overall performance.

Course Work and Examinations

A minimum 72 units of course work, independent study, and research (including transfer credit) must be completed. Transfer credit of up to 24 units of related courses at the master’s level is permissible on approval of the Program Committee; this course work must have been completed with at least a grade of B or above, at an accredited institution, and must be directly related to the joint program and the student’s goals. Of the 72 units, a minimum of 24 units must be completed in the graduate engineering program at CSULB and a minimum of 24 units in the graduate mathematics program at CGU. Both sets of 24 units must conform to the area requirements of the relevant institution and  must be approved by the Program Committee .  All degree requirements must be completed within seven years (or six with the transfer of 24 units according to CGU regulations) from the time a student begins doctoral study.

Every doctoral student must maintain a minimum cumulative grade-point average (GPA) of 3.0. Students are put on academic probation if they fail to maintain a cumulative or term GPA of at least 3.0 in all units attempted subsequent to admission to the degree program.  After two consecutive semesters on probation, students are subject to disqualification if they fail to earn sufficient grade-points to be removed from the probationary status.

CSULB Minimum Course Requirement

The following three courses (12 units) are required at CSULB to meet the 24-unit course requirement:

• ENGR 795 - Advanced Directed Studies (4 units)
• ENGR 796 - Doctoral Seminar (2 units)
• ENGR 798 - Doctoral Dissertation (1 - 6 units)

Note: Students are required to take 6 units of ENGR 798.

The remaining 12 units of course work for students who have received transfer credit, may include ENGR 790 (Selected Topics in Engineering) and other advanced graduate courses relevant to the student’s program of study.

Minimum Student Load Per Semester

It is highly recommended that doctoral students enroll in at least 9.0 units per semester in order to demonstrate progress towards the degree. The CSULB director of the program, in consultation with the doctoral advisor, may require that a student take at least 9.0 units per semester if the student is not showing adequate progress.

These courses may include the following:

• ENGR 797A - Preparation for Ph.D. Preliminary Examinations (4-12 units)
• ENGR 797B - Preparation for Ph.D. Qualifying Examination (4-12 units)
• ENGR 797C - Research for Ph.D. Dissertation (4-12 units)

Residency Requirements

Doctoral students must complete their program within a period of seven years (or six with the transfer of 24 units) according to CGU regulations (see below). During this time, a minimum of 72 units of course work, independent study, and research (including transfer credit) must be completed. Normally no more than 16 units per semester may be credited toward the degree. No more than 12 units per summer session may be credited toward the degree. The transfer of credit form is available on  the CGU website. The Program Committee will consider petitions for extensions and/or exemptions.

All degree requirements must be completed within seven years from the time a student begins graduate study. Work for which transfer credit is  granted will be counted as part of the seven years, e.g., if transfer credit of 24 units (one year) is granted, the time limit will be six years.

The residency requirements for the Ph.D. may be met either by two semesters of full-time study in a 24-month period or by the completion of 48 units of course work within a 48-month period (including work in the summer session). There are special provisions for students transferring units as described below.

Students who receive transfer credit for 12 units or less may meet the residency requirement either by completing two full-time semesters of course work within a 24-month period or by completing 36 units within a 48-month period. Those receiving transfer credit for 13 to 24 units may meet the residency requirement by completing 24 units within a 36-month period. The seven-year maximum time period for the Ph.D. degree is reduced by six months for 12 units or less of transfer credit and by 12 months for 13 to 24 units of transfer credit.

Plan of Study

After consultation with their advisors, students are  required  before the end of the second semester, to prepare and file with the Program Committee a Plan of Study (see page 14) for completing the course requirements for the degree. The purpose of the Plan of Study is to ensure that the student is aware of the requirements for the degree. The Plan of Study should indicate the areas of study that the student will be taking in preparation for the preliminary examinations. In consultation with the student’s advisor and Program Committee, the Plan of Study may be altered at a subsequent time by petition.

If a student withdraws from the program after completing a substantial portion of the course work, a master’s degree at either or both institutions is still possible by satisfaction of the appropriate requirements. Both CGU and CSULB require 30-36 semester units of course work that include culminating experiences for master’s degrees.

Preliminary Examinations

The student is required to pass written preliminary examinations. These examinations consist of two examination areas:  one in engineering  and  one in mathematics . These examinations are usually taken after completion of the relevant course work at each institution. These examinations are given two or three times a year at the discretion and under the control of the Program Committee. Should a student fail an examination, they may petition the Program Committee for one retake.

Before taking the first preliminary examination, the student  is required  to complete the Preliminary Examination Permission Form (available at the CSULB College of Engineering website , and see page 15). This form requires the student to specify the core areas of the Preliminary Examination; the student’s intended dissertation advisor and the directors of the Joint Doctoral Program must sign the form. The purpose of this form is to certify that the student and dissertation advisor are in agreement on the set of examinations. If, in the course of time, this set of examinations and/or the advisor is amended, the form must be resubmitted. The preliminary examinations are considered completed when the two examinations specified on the student’s form have been successfully passed.

You must be enrolled at CSULB in order to take the CSULB portion of the Preliminary Examinations.

With regard to the preliminary exams taken at CGU, the following conditions apply.   If a student fails or forfeits his/her second attempt at a preliminary exam, he/she may submit a petition to the IMS Director, asking for permission to change the preliminary exam subject to a new one. The petition should provide a valid reason for allowing such a change.

Before deciding on the petition, the IMS Director will consult the student’s academic and/or research advisors, the professor who administered the current preliminary exam and the corresponding Program Director(s). Students may be granted such a permission at most once while in the Ph.D. program.

Failure to successfully complete the preliminary examination requirement results in dismissal from the Ph.D. program. Therefore, dismissal from the Ph.D. program results from any one of the following:

• For either CGU or CSULB, the student fails preliminary examination in the same subject.
• For CGU, the student’s first attempt at a preliminary examination results in failure, followed by a petition granted to take a preliminary exam in a different subject, followed by failure of that exam.

CGU Institute of Mathematical Sciences Course Requirement:

The following three core courses (12 units) are required at CGU to meet the 24-unit course requirement (letter grade B- or better should be received for each  course):

• Methods of Applied Mathematics (Math 294)
• Continuous Modeling (Math 388)
• Numerical Methods for Matrix Computations (Math 368)

The remaining 12 units of course work should be chosen after consulting their adviser, they may include no more than two terms of an industrial clinic or independent  study.

CGU Institute of Mathematical Sciences Preliminary Examinations

The CGU IMS Preliminary examination is based on the three core classes stated above. It is recommended students take a preliminary exam soon after completing the required course(s). Preliminary exam is administrated twice per year.

CSULB College of Engineering Preliminary Examinations

The College of Engineering requires a minimum of  three graduate courses  (graded B or above) as a basis for each Preliminary Examination. With the consent of their dissertation advisor, students select  three topics from the list provided by the faculty advisor . The list should be approved by the CSULB director of Joint Doctoral Program.

Research Tool

Students in the Joint Doctoral Program must demonstrate proficiency in problem-solving ability using computer programs. This demonstration may take different forms depending on the student’s engineering sub-discipline, but must include evidence that the student has used an appropriate computer language and an algorithmic method to solve a problem from an engineering discipline.

Research and Dissertation

Upon completion of at least 48 units of course work (including transfer units), the preliminary examinations, and the research tool requirement, a student embarks on the research phase of the Joint Doctoral Program. In preparation for the research phase, the student is expected to spend at least a semester in advanced graduate courses, seminars, or directed reading courses where exposure to research material is emphasized. From these and other sources, the student gains the ability to understand the motivation for research in engineering and computational mathematics and learns to apply research techniques.

Doctoral Committee

During entry to the program and through the period of the main body of course work at CGU and CSULB, the Program Committee will monitor the student’s progress. Upon successful completion of the preliminary examinations, the student petitions the Program Committee to constitute the Doctoral Committee. The student chooses this committee with advice from the faculty advisor and with approval of the Program Committee. The committee must include at least two faculty members each from CGU and CSULB ; it must also provide breadth and depth in mathematics and engineering in the chosen faculty members. The Doctoral Committee supervises the student’s progress through research preparation and dissertation writing; it also administers the qualifying and oral examinations for the degree. The chair of the Doctoral Committee is the dissertation supervisor.

Research Proposal and Qualifying Examination

With these advanced courses as background, and with the guidance of the Doctoral Committee, the student defines an area of proposed research and prepares a written Dissertation Proposal containing an outline of the research to be undertaken and references to relevant source materials. The Dissertation Proposal is presented to the Doctoral Committee at least two weeks prior to the Qualifying Examination. The appropriate form under “Doctoral Degree Forms” can be obtained from the CGU website www.cgu.edu (under Current Students, Registrar Information). The Qualifying Examination is an oral presentation to the Doctoral Committee describing the planned research. The student is expected to present evidence both as to the mathematical content and to the engineering application of the proposed research, supporting such evidence with references to previous research in both areas. The Doctoral Committee judges the fitness and quality of the Dissertation Proposal from  this presentation and from the written proposal. It subsequently communicates its recommendations to the Program Committee. Only upon a positive recommendation may the student embark on a dissertation. In the event of failure, the qualifying examination may be retaken once after petition to the Program Committee.

Advancement to Candidacy

After successful completion of the Qualifying Examination and certification that all other requirements are fulfilled, the student is advanced to candidacy. The appropriate form under “Doctoral Degree Forms” may be obtained from the CGU website. This must occur at least six months before the Final Oral Defense.

Dissertation and Final Oral Examination

Upon completion of the research, the student will prepare the dissertation in accordance with CGU regulations. A final draft of the dissertation will be presented to each member of the Doctoral Committee at least three weeks prior to the final oral examination. The appropriate form under “Doctoral Degree Forms,” along with an abstract of the dissertation, must be filed with CGU’s Office of Admission and Records three weeks before the exam. This deadline is very strict and no exceptions will be made. Please see the CGU website under “Academic Calendar” for the final defense scheduling dates. The oral defense will normally be held on the campus of the dissertation supervisor.

Policies and Procedures

Throughout their entire program of study, unit-taking students must be registered at  either  CGU or CSULB. Students, who intend not to take course work at either institution, including those who have finished their required units, must take the necessary steps to maintain continuous enrollment.  This is achieved by registering for Math 499 (Doctoral Study) at Claremont Graduate University or by registering for Engineering 798 (Doctoral Dissertation) at California State University, Long Beach.  At least two semesters of registration for Math 499 at CGU must be maintained during the last year prior to graduation.  In order for the degree to be conferred, a student must meet all regulations as stated in the CGU Bulletin under “Degree Regulations.” Requests for  leave of absence  must be submitted to each registrar’s office and approved by both institutions according to the standards of each; upon approval of leave the student should advise the math office at CGU and the office of the Joint Doctoral Program at CSULB. Students should contact each registrar’s office for leave of absence policies. If the student fails to advise the registrar at CGU of his/her leave granted by CSULB, he/she will be dropped from the program (CGU has no official arrangement for leaves). Upon return, the student will be required to pay CGU a reinstatement fee in addition to regular semester tuition.

International students registered for units at CSULB must provide the CGU International Student Advisor, Ariel Carpenter, with proof of registration within two weeks of the beginning of the semester at CGU. Proof of full-time registration (8 units minimum) is required to maintain immigration status. (In the circumstance of completion of units, registration in Doctoral Study, CGU Math 499, is required.)

Students should arrange for advisors, one in math at CGU and one in engineering at CSULB, at the earliest opportunity. The program committee will help provide advisors.

After consultation with their advisors, students must submit a plan of study, including a petition for transfer of credits, if applicable, during their first year of study. The Plan of Study must be approved and transfer of units recommended to the Registrar by the program committee.

Procedures for Student Admission

• Students must complete online application forms at  both  CGU and CSULB. The application materials that include official transcripts, three letters of reference (preferably on the forms supplied in the CGU package), a personal statement and a resume, and test scores must be sent to both institutions. Current, official GRE scores are required. Scores may not be older than 5 years. For CGU, you can apply here:   https://admissions.cgu.edu/apply/ .   For CSULB, you can apply here:  https://www2.calstate.edu/apply.  
• The CGU director of the CSULB/CGU Joint Doctoral Program, Marina Chugunova, reviews completed files. In the event of a negative review, a rejection letter is issued by CGU. In the event of a positive review, the application, along with a copy of the completed file, is forwarded to the CSULB director of the CSULB/CGU Joint Doctoral Program, Dr. Hamid Rahai.  
• Results of the Long Beach review are transmitted back to CGU Math. Upon a positive review by CSULB, the application and fee are sent to the CSULB Admissions Office to be processed. A negative review initiates a rejection letter from CGU.  
• Upon admission to the program, CGU will generate two admission letters; one is mailed to the student and one is sent to CSULB. This letter includes a decision card and specifies a required $300 tuition deposit that should be submitted to CGU if the student chooses to accept the offer of admission.  
• Students admitted to  provisional status  must provide the materials needed to complete their files before the end of their first semester of enrollment. Official scores for the GRE General Test are required of all students before admission to full graduate standing. The joint faculty program committee will review completed files for change of status.

• Some Examples of Persistence of Superoscillations
• Aula Seminari - III Piano
• Abstract When combining N bandlimited functions with low frequencies and allowing N to approach infinity, one would typically anticipate obtaining a function with low frequency. However, for certain bandlimited functions with low frequency, the resulting function exhibits high frequencies. Such functions are termed superoscillating functions, and the phenomenon described is known as super oscillation. In this presentation, we will delve into the behavior of superoscillating functions under the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and its variations. Specifically, we will explore existing methods for demonstrating the persistence of superoscillations, applying them to illustrate the persistence of superoscillations under certain partial differential equations. Our focus will be on the Schrödinger equation governing spin particles and the Schrödinger equation pertaining to the Aharonov-Bohm effect. It is based on joint works with Fabrizio Colombo, Irene Sabadini and Brett D. Wick. This initiative is part of the "PhD Lectures" activity of the project "Departments of Excellence 2023-2027" of the Department of Mathematics of Politecnico di Milano. This activity consists of seminars open to PhD students, followed by meetings with the speaker to discuss and go into detail on the topics presented at the talk.

• Revisiting the Augmented Lagrangian Approach to Saddle-Point Problems
• Online (trasmesso anche in aula Saleri)
• Abstract Augmented Lagrangian (AL) methods have a long history in both optimization and numerical PDEs, going back to the work of Powell and Hestenes in the late 1960s and to the work of Glowinski and collaborators starting in the mid-1970s, respectively. Whereas AL-type methods have been long very popular in the field of constrained optimization, where are among the most widely used techniques available (as witnessed, for instance, by the great success enjoyed by methods like ADMM), the track record of these methods in solving PDE-related problems has been until recently somewhat less impressive, due in part to ill-conditioning and implementation difficulties. In this talk I will describe advances in developing robust and scalable solvers for PDE-related saddle point problems by means of iterative methods and block preconditioners tailored to the AL formulation. The effectiveness of these solvers will be demonstrated on problems from incompressible flow (Oseen problem, coupled Stokes-Darcy problem), liquid crystal directors modeling, and optimal control with PDE constraints. Collaborators over the years include Fatemeh Beik, Chiara Faccio, Patrick Farrell, Santolo Leveque, Maxim Olshanskii and Zhen Wang. Contatto: [email protected]

• The Leray-Lions existence theorem under (p,q)-growth conditions
• Abstract In this talk I will describe recent results obtained in collaboration with P. Marcellini and E. Mascolo. In particular, we proved an existence result of weak solutions to a Dirichlet problem associated to second order elliptic equations in divergence form satisfying (p,q)-growth conditions. This is a first attempt to extend to (p,q)-growth the well known Leray-Lions existence theorem, which holds under the so-called natural growth conditions. Our existence result is obtained "via regularity", i.e., by using new local regularity results (boundedness, Lipschitz continuity and higher differentiability) for the weak solutions of the associated equation.

• Climate and environmental attention: a news-based composite indicator
• Politecnico di Milano Aula IV (accanto aula Rogers)
• Abstract The way people perceive the risks associated with climate change is influenced by scientific research, social awareness, and by media representation Boykoff [2011]. The effects of perception of climate risk extend beyond Environmental concerns and permeate decision-making processes in both economic and social policy. We believe that a composite index to measure climate attention, if well-constructed and robust, can provide valuable insights for policymakers and serve as a leading indicator in macroeconomic and financial analysis [Luxon, 2019]. The composite indicator proposed in this article is based on a novel methodology that evaluates the semantic relevance, and not the favorability, of selected keywords, each of them provided with a semantic score, based both on the number of appearances and on the interconnectedness with other words in the text corpus. Finally, the Benefit of the Doubt (BoD) aggregation strategy is adopted that takes advantage of a time-varying optimal weighting scheme. The index is compared to alternative approaches.

• Strichartz estimates for the Dirac equation on compact manifolds without boundary
• Aula seminari - III piano
• Abstract The Dirac equation on Rn can be listed within the class of dispersive equations, together with, e.g., the wave and Klein-Gordon equations. In the years a lot of tools have been developed in order to quantify the dispersion of a system. Among these one finds the Strichartz estimates, that are a priori estimates of the solutions in mixed Lebesgue spaces. For the flat case Rn they are known, as they are derived from the ones that hold for the wave and Klein-Gordon equations. However, when passing to a curved spacetime domain, very few results are present in the literature. In this talk I will firstly introduce the Dirac equation on curved domains. Then, I will discuss the validity of this kind of estimates in the case of Dirac equations on compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary. This is based on a joint work with Federico Cacciafesta (Università di Padova) and Long Meng (CERMICS-École des ponts ParisTech).

• The Hilbert scheme is a classically studied moduli space, which parametrises closed subschemes with prescribed Hilbert polynomial in an ambient projective scheme. These moduli spaces where initially introduced by Grothendieck, but turned out to have a prominent rôle in many modern areas outside the realm of Algebraic Geometry: Mathematical Physics, Combinatorics, Theoretical Physics (just to mention some recent examples). Generalisations of the Hilbert scheme have a wide range of applications as well, such as nested Hilbert schemes (parametrising flags of closed subschemes), moduli spaces of framed sheaves and Quot schemes (parametrising quotient sheaves). The easiest example one can consider is the Hilbert scheme of points, which parametrises closed zero-dimensional subschemes of fixed length. Already in this case, the geometry of the moduli space is rich and intriguing, as it is in general considerably pathological. For instance, if the dimension of the ambient variety is 3, the Hilbert scheme of points is in general reducible, and for dimension larger than 4 its singularities can be as bad as possible. Hilbert schemes (and their generalisation) played an important role in the development of modern Enumerative Geometry. In fact, for a large and interesting class of cases, the Hilbert scheme of points is not smooth but carries a virtual fundamental class. Donaldson-Thomas theory deals precisely with the (virtual) invariants one can compute on the Hilbert schemes with respect to its virtual structure. Donaldson-Thomas theory is very rich and admits several layers of refinements, for example: cohomological, K-theoretical, elliptic, categorical, motivic and is predicted to match Gromov-Witten invariants.

• An adaptive superconvergent mixed finite element method based on local residual minimization
• Aula Saleri
• Abstract We introduce an adaptive superconvergent finite element method for a class of mixed formulations to solve partial differential equations involving a diffusion term. It combines a superconvergent postprocessing technique for the primal variable with an adaptive finite element method via residual minimization. Such a residual minimization procedure is performed on a local postprocessing scheme, commonly used in the context of mixed finite element methods. Given the local nature of that approach, the underlying saddle point problems associated with residual minimizations can be solved with minimal computational effort. We propose and study a posteriori error estimators, including the built-in residual representative associated with residual minimization schemes; and an improved estimator that adds, on the one hand, a residual term quantifying the mismatch between discrete fluxes and, on the other hand, the interelement jumps of the postprocessed solution. We present numerical experiments in two dimensions using Brezzi-Douglas-Marini elements as input for our methodology. The experiments perfectly fit our key theoretical findings and suggest that our estimates are sharp. Contatto: [email protected]

• From scalar to tensor finite elements
• Aula Consiglio VII piano - Dipartimento di Matematica
• Abstract In the history of finite elements, the earliest Lagrange finite elements, consisted of scalar-valued functions. To approximate fluxes, vector-valued finite elements with continuous normal (n) components across element interfaces, or n-continuous elements, were developed later. The finite element toolkit was then supplemented by t-continuous vector-valued Nedelec elements with continuous tangential (t) components, now routinely used for Maxwell equations. Although these elements were developed separately, today we understand them together as fitting into a cochain subcomplex of a de Rham complex of Sobolev spaces. Other tensor-valued finite elements are now being viewed with increasing interest and they form the main subject of this talk. The earliest of these consists of matrix-valued functions whose normal-normal (nn) component varies continuously across element interfaces: these are the nn-continuous matrix fields of the Hellan-Herrmann-Johnson element. More recently, nt-continuous matrix-valued finite elements were developed to approximate viscous stress in incompressible flows: they have continuous shear, or normal-tangential (nt) components. To add to this picture, matrix-valued elements with continuous tangential-tangential (tt) components, called Regge elements, are finding increasing utility: they are key to approximating the metric tensor of Riemannian manifolds. This talk delves into the details of these developments. How does one connect these disparate developments with nn-, nt-, and tt-continuous matrix finite elements? This does not appear to be as easy as the previous synthesis of vector-valued elements by the de Rham complex. The spaces in de Rham complexes are connected by fundamental first-order differential operators (grad, curl, and div in three dimensions), all derived from a single definition of the exterior derivative. In contrast, what is natural for the above-mentioned tensor finite elements are other second-order differential operators. We conclude grazing the frontiers of our understanding on potentially unifying connections. This initiative is part of the “Ph.D. Lectures” activity of the project "Departments of Excellence 2023-2027" of the Department of Mathematics of Politecnico di Milano. This activity consists of seminars open to Ph.D. students, followed by meetings with the speaker to discuss and go into detail on the topics presented at the talk.

• Exascale Geostatistics for Environmental Data Science
• Abstract Environmental data science relies on some fundamental problems such as: 1) Spatial Gaussian likelihood inference; 2) Spatial kriging; 3) Gaussian random field simulations; 4) Multivariate Gaussian probabilities; and 5) Robust inference for spatial data. These problems develop into very challenging tasks when the number of spatial locations grows large. Moreover, they are the cornerstone of more sophisticated procedures involving non-Gaussian distributions, multivariate random fields, or space-time processes. Parallel computing becomes necessary for avoiding computational and memory restrictions associated with large-scale environmental data science applications. In this talk, I will explain how high-performance computing can provide solutions to the aforementioned problems using tile-based linear algebra, tile low-rank approximations, as well as multi- and mixed-precision computational statistics. I will introduce ExaGeoStat, and its R version ExaGeoStatR, a powerful software that can perform exascale (10^18 flops/s) geostatistics by exploiting the power of existing parallel computing hardware systems, such as shared-memory, possibly equipped with GPUs, and distributed-memory systems, i.e., supercomputers. I will then describe how ExaGeoStat can be used to design competitions on spatial statistics for large datasets and to benchmark new methods developed by statisticians and data scientists for large-scale environmental data science.

• Aula Consiglio VII piano
• Abstract In recent years, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) methods have begun to play a more and more enabling role in the sciences and in industry. In particular, the advent of large and/or complex data corpora has given rise to new technological challenges and possibilities. In his talk, Müller will touch upon the topic of ML applications in the sciences, in particular in chemistry and physics. He will also discuss possibilities for extracting information from machine learning models to further our understanding by explaining nonlinear ML models. Finally, Müller will briefly discuss perspectives and limitations.

Overview of the PhD Program

For specific information on the Applied Mathematics PhD program, see the navigation links to the right. 

What follows on this page is an overview of all Ph.D. programs at the School; additional information and guidance can be found on the  Graduate Policies  pages. 

General Ph.D. Requirements

• 10 semester-long graduate courses, including at least 8 disciplinary.   At least 5 of the 10 should be graduate-level SEAS "technical" courses (or FAS graduate-level technical courses taught by SEAS faculty), not including seminar/reading/project courses.  Undergraduate-level courses cannot be used.  For details on course requirements, see the school's overall PhD course requirements  and the individual program pages linked therein.
• Program Plan (i.e., the set of courses to be used towards the degree) approval by the  Committee on Higher Degrees  (CHD).
• Minimum full-time academic residency of two years .
• Serve as a Teaching Fellow (TF) in one semester of the second year.
• Oral Qualifying Examination Preparation in the major field is evaluated in an oral examination by a qualifying committee. The examination has the dual purpose of verifying the adequacy of the student's preparation for undertaking research in a chosen field and of assessing the student's ability to synthesize knowledge already acquired. For details on arranging your Qualifying Exam, see the exam policies and the individual program pages linked therein.
• Committee Meetings : PhD students' research committees meet according to the guidelines in each area's "Committee Meetings" listing.  For details see the "G3+ Committee Meetings" section of the Policies of the CHD  and the individual program pages linked therein.
• Final Oral Examination (Defense) This public examination devoted to the field of the dissertation is conducted by the student's research committee. It includes, but is not restricted to, a defense of the dissertation itself.  For details of arranging your final oral exam see the  Ph.D. Timeline  page.
• Dissertation Upon successful completion of the qualifying examination, a committee chaired by the research supervisor is constituted to oversee the dissertation research. The dissertation must, in the judgment of the research committee, meet the standards of significant and original research.

Optional additions to the Ph.D. program

Harvard PhD students may choose to pursue these additional aspects:

• a Secondary Field (which is similar to a "minor" subject area).  SEAS offers PhD Secondary Field programs in  Data Science and in  Computational Science and Engineering .   GSAS  lists  secondary fields offered by other programs.
• a Master of Science (S.M.) degree conferred  en route to the Ph.D in one of several of SEAS's subject areas.  For details see here .

The report includes statistics of reported crimes that have occurred on campus, in certain off-campus buildings, or on property owned or controlled by Dartmouth, and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from, the campus as well as reported fires occurring in residential facilities. The report also includes institutional policies concerning campus security, such as policies concerning sexual assault, fire safety, and other matters. You may obtain a copy of this report by contacting the Director of Safety and Security and the College Proctor at +1 (603) 646-4000.

• Application Fee

A non-refundable application fee of $50 is required of all applicants, except for Dartmouth College or Dartmouth Engineering students and alumni. The fee must be paid by credit card. Applications will not be processed until this fee is received.

Letters of Recommendation

Three (3) letters of recommendation must be completed and submitted online directly by your recommenders . Please have your recommenders complete the evaluation form that will be emailed to them and submit a signed letter on their official institutional letterhead. If your recommender’s company or institution has a policy against letterhead they must provide a copy of this policy with the recommendation letter.

Letters of recommendation should ideally come from your college professors using their official school email address. Applicants with work or military experience or currently in another graduate program should submit a recommendation from their immediate supervisor, a current or former employer, or someone who knows them well through some other professional or community activity.

Academic Transcripts

All applicants are required to submit academic transcripts from each undergraduate or graduate institution from which you obtained your degrees (eg. your bachelor’s degrees or other advanced degrees.)

You may scan and upload a copy of your academic transcript (not diploma) issued by the institution(s) from which you obtained your undergraduate degree(s) and any advanced/graduate degree(s) directly to the online application.

For grading scales other than 4.0 grading scales: Please include documentation indicating the scale.

Applicants with international transcripts are encouraged to submit a transcript evaluation from WES (World Education Services) along with their Dartmouth Engineering application. While a WES evaluation is not mandatory for admission, it can help expedite the application review process. If you are admitted, you will need to submit official academic transcripts for all your international coursework and credentials. WES evaluations can be used instead of official transcripts, but they must be sent directly to Dartmouth Engineering by the evaluation service provider, and they must include a copy of the official transcripts that were evaluated.

Non-degree coursework: If you attended institutions other than those from which your degree(s) were granted, you are required to scan and upload your academic transcripts from these institutions (transfer coursework, domestic or study-abroad programs, postgraduate non-degree coursework, etc.).

If you have more than three undergraduate transcripts or three graduate transcripts to upload, please combine them by uploading a file that contains more than one transcript.

• Scan BOTH sides of your transcript (provided the second side is not blank).
• Depending on the scanner and software, you may either insert individual images (.jpg) into a single word processing document for upload, OR if your software produces a .pdf, simply upload that file.
• The file must be less than 1 MB, in a standard format, WITHOUT password protection or macros. Any of these problems will cause the upload process to fail.
• A diploma is not a transcript.

If you upload a scanned copy of your transcript, you do not need to send a hard copy. The scanned copy fulfills the requirement for the application process. Upon admission, you will be required to supply an official hard copy of your transcript.

Admitted students: If admitted, you will be required to request that ONE official, original hardcopy transcript mailed to Dartmouth Engineering (mailing address below) directly from each college and/or university you have attended in a signed, sealed envelope. We will accept a transcript via email if that is your prior institution’s method of transcript delivery.

International applicants must make arrangements to have their academic records translated and sent along with originals. Where American-style transcripts are not used, the applicant must include all available records including courses, grades, degrees, and rank-in-class. The appropriate university officials must certify these records. Evaluations from WES (World Education Services) can be used instead of official transcripts, but they must be sent directly to Thayer by the evaluation service provider, and they must include a copy of the official transcripts that were evaluated.

Upon admission, supporting materials such as transcripts should be mailed to:

Graduate School Resources

Resources to help you afford graduate study might include assistantships, fellowships, traineeships, and financial aid.  Further funding information is available from the Graduate School. Be sure to check with your program for individual policies and restrictions related to funding.

There are three mechanisms for Graduate Student funding through the university for Engineering Mechanics Ph.D. students:

• Fellowships
• Graduate assistantships: project assistantships, teaching assistantships, and research assistantships
• Traineeships 

Funding is awarded based on the qualifications of the student, the number of applicants, the amount of available funding, the number of continuing students receiving support, and the degree program a student is enrolled in. You can apply for funding for research assistantships by contacting individual faculty members directly. Please check our  website  to look for faculty (only those listed with titles of assistant professor, associate professor, or professor can serve as graduate student advisors). Search for faculty who have research interests that align closely with your own by viewing faculty directory entries, visiting the faculty’s website (linked from the directory page), and reviewing publications by the faculty member. Once you have identified faculty with interests close to your own, you are encouraged to contact them by email to inquire regarding available research assistant positions. The admissions office does not know if a particular professor has research assistant positions available.

Students who apply to the Ph.D. program will be automatically considered for fellowship opportunities within the department. Admitted students will be eligible to apply for Teaching Assistantship positions. More information, including the application, will be available to students after admission is complete.

More information on graduate student funding is available from the  UW-Madison Graduate School .

Students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents may be eligible to receive some level of funding through the federal direct loan program. These loans are available to qualified graduate students who are taking at least 4 credits during the fall and spring semesters, and 2 credits during summer. Private loans are also available. Learn more about financial aid at  their website .

MCFAM Seminar - Can deep learning help solve asset-pricing equations?

Speaker: Deqing Jiang

Abstract: The curse of dimensionality stops classical methods from solving high-dimensional (differential) equations numerically. However, recent advances in deep-learning-based methods imply that these equations can be solved by reformulating them as optimization problems. In this session, we briefly review some of these deep-learning-based methods and their convergence analysis and open a discussion about how to apply them to solve (high-dimensional) asset-pricing equations.

Bio: Deqing Jiang, Final year PhD, Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. Research direction: Analysis of deep-learning-based PDE solvers. Research interests: Mathematical finance, scientific machine learning.
