Graduate Programs in Mathematics
Typically, about half our math majors at Harvey Mudd College go on to graduate school. Listed below are several of the top graduate programs in mathematics in the U.S., in ranked order according to the National Research Council's Research-Doctorate Programs in the United States, published in 1995.
These are overall rankings; bear in mind that strengths in specific fields may vary, and a school not ranked highly overall may be extremely strong in particular fields. So talk to your advisor about where you should apply. You can also check out PhDs.org's Customized Graduate School Rankings, which ranks graduate programs based on criteria that you select.
