Any School with Funding for Applied Mathematics/Statistics Master's?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey guys,

I'm looking for some prestigious applied math or statistics programs, but I've been struggling to find those that provide funding (I need most of it covered to be able to afford it).

In terms of my background:

-3.4 GPA, B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Psychology (separate bachelor's degrees)

-Concentration in Biomolecular Engineering

-Minors in Mathematics and Chemistry (I have a pretty strong mathematics background, but haven't taken a ton of computer science courses)

-GRE: 161 verbal, 165 quantitative

-Large amount of both leadership and research experience

I plan on going into Computational Neuroscience after I get my master's, but I really need some funding for the master's degree. I've looked at some schools (the QMSS program at Columbia, the Math program at NYU, etc) but I just can't seem to find one out there that would provide enough funding for me to attend.

Does anyone have any suggestion on where to apply that funds well (and that I would have at least an outside shot at getting into)? Thanks!

The statistics and biostatistics MS program at Michigan have surprisingly high proportion of students with funding.

I know some applied math masters students have TA'ships at the University of Washington but PhD students have first priority for those positions. People in various department do computational neuroscience work.  It's definitely a research area they are trying to grow in.
