ysoheil Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I'd like to get a PhD in Math and I was wondering if you could give me some tips. Here is my situation: - 39 years old - studied Computer Science with a Math minor as undergrad - graduated in '04 with a low GPA (major GPA 3.2), with cumulative lower. - I've been in the industry since then working as a software engineer - I worked on self-driving cars 3 years ago and at Twitter 10 years ago - I don't have any references in academia who can write me recommendation letters - took Calculus I to IV, Linear Algebra, Discrete Mathematics - I can financially support myself without working and study full time - I am open to doing a MS degree first I'd truly like to do research in Math and explore a topic and dive deep. I don't have a good idea what areas interest me as I don't have much understanding of the different subfields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
