Aziz Mathematics Scholarship

This award is made on the basis of excellence in mathematics. This is the math department's highest award of excellence for a non-graduating math major.

This scholarship was first awarded in 2002. It is funded by Kadir Aziz, who received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from our department in 1958. Dr. Aziz was on the faculty of Georgetown University from 1956 to 1967, and has been on the faculty of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County since 1967. Throughout his career, Professor Aziz has been an active member of the Numerical Analysis group at College Park. He is also the sponsor of the Aziz Lecture series.

Euclid Teaching Assistantships

The Euclid Teaching Assistanships are awarded to math majors who are on a track to become future high school or middle school teachers and who demonstrate the promise to be excellent teaching assistants for a Calculus course. The winners serve as Teaching Assistants for a section of calculus in the fall and/or spring semester, generally using the close-contact small groups method. The winners are paid at the rate a graduate student in mathematics would be paid to teach the section. Interested students apply in the Spring semester and are selected for these assistantships for the following year.

Higginbotham Award

This award is made to an outstanding junior mathematics major.

The award is in memory of Robert Michael Higginbotham, an excellent student who in 1967 received a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics here at College Park. Two years later, he was killed in the Vietnam War. His name can be found online at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall Page. The award was established by a donation of his family.

Carol Karp Award

This award was made on the basis of outstanding performance in the field of logic. 

The award was established in memory of Carol Karp (1926-1972), a Maryland mathematics professor and logician who had a great influence on the development of Logic in the Mathematics Department. The award was originally funded by a number of people, including professors in the mathematics and philosophy departments. An in memoriam volume in her honor (Spring Lecture Notes in Mathematics Vol. 492, ed. D.W.Kueker, 1975) contains more information on her life and contributions.

This award has been discontinued.  It was awarded for the last time in Spring 2004.

Edgar Krahn Scholarship (Mathematics Competition Scholarship)

This scholarship aims to provide financial assistance to worthy students studying mathematics at the University of Maryland. Recipients are selected by the Department of Mathematics on the basis of performance in the University of Maryland High School Mathematics Competition. The amount and duration of the support has varied.

The Krahn Scholarships are funded from the Edgar Krahn Scholarship endowment. This endowment was established in honor of the mathematician Edgar Krahn (1894-1961), who played a significant role in the development of mathematics in Estonia, and made research contributions in diverse areas including differential geometry, probability, gas dynamics and elasticity. A centenary volume in his honor contains more information on his life and contributions (see "Edgar Krahn, 1894--1961. A centenary volume." Edited by Ulo Lumiste and Jaak Peetre. IOS Press, Amsterdam; a copublication with the Estonian Mathematical Society, Tartu, 1994. ISBN: 90-5199-168-1).

The Edgar Krahn Scholarship endowment was established in 1983 by Dorothee Krahn, the widow of Edgar Krahn. Dorothee Krahn has remained active in the University as a supporter not only of mathematics, but also of the arts.

Outstanding Senior Award

This award recognizes the outstanding senior mathematics major.

The award was established in 1993. It is funded by the mathematics department.

Secondary Education - Mathematics Scholarship

This award was established in 2002. It is funded by the contributions of Denny and Frances Gulick, faculty in the Mathematics Department. The scholarship aims to support promising students in their pursuit of teaching mathematics in secondary school.

Strauss Scholarship

This scholarship is awarded to a math major with exceptional ability and interest in mathematics. It covers in-state tuition for the Fall-Spring following the Spring in which the award is made.

The scholarship, first awarded in 1989, is named after Ron Strauss, a professor in the Mathematics Department who after an earlier research career in dynamical systems turned with great energy and dedication to education and the history of mathematics. He died in 1978 while serving as Undergraduate Chair of the Mathematics Department.

Strauss Teaching Assistantships

These are awarded to strong, advanced math majors with excellent teaching ability. Each winner serves as a Teaching Assistant in a section of calculus in the fall and in the spring semester. Interested students apply the previous spring and compete for these assistantships. (See the official listings for more details on amounts and conditions.) The winners are paid at the rate a graduate student in mathematics would be paid to teach the section.

For strong math majors, the Mathematics Department encourages mathematics research activity (for example, through the Math 489 "research interaction teams") and in some cases graduate coursework in mathematics. Students with definite arrangements for such activity while Strauss TAs will be given preference in the spring competition.

Dan Sweet Scholarship

This scholarship was awarded to a full-time student and mathematics major (specializing in applied math preferred) at the University of Maryland, College Park. The recipient must carry at least a 3.0 GPA in mathematics courses. Students on financial aid get first consideration.

This scholarship, first awarded in 2005, is named after Dan Sweet, a professor in the Mathematics Department who served as director of the applied mathematics program and was for many years recognized as one of the very best teachers in the department. Professor Sweet died in 2004.

In Fall 2006 this scholarship was renamed the Daniel Sweet Memorial Fellowship. It is now administered by the Norbert Wiener Center for Harmonic Analysis and Applications.

The John and Sabrina Kontner Endowed Scholarship

This award is made to undergraduate mathematics majors who have expressed interest in the applications of mathematics to the solution of real world problems in business and industry.

The award was established in 2011 by John and Sabrina Kontner. John received his Bachelors degree from the University in 1984 and his Masters in Mathematics in 1988. Sabrina received her Bachelors degree from the University in 1992.

The Dan Shanks Award

This award is made to undergraduate students studying computational number theory and related areas.

The award was established in 2012 by Jim Owings, a former professor in the Mathematics Department, in memory of Dan Shanks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Shanks), a well-known computational number
theorist who worked at the University after retiring from the Naval Ordnance Laboratory and the National Bureau of Standards.

Students interested in the applying their graduate courses to the BS/MA program must consult with the appropriate graudate unit and file the appropriate paperwork before taking any graduate courses.

Introduction

The essential feature of the Combined Degree Program is that its students may use up to 9 credits of coursework taken for their undergraduate degree to count toward the M.A. degree as well.

Eligibility

The Mathematics Department offers a combined B.S./M.A. degree program for students with exceptional ability and interest in mathematics. Qualified undergraduate mathematics majors are eligible for participation in the program. Although each application is reviewed individually, the following are the usual requirements for acceptance into this program:

  • GPA of at least 3.5
  • No more than 15 credits remaining of required upper-level mathematics courses toward the B.S. degree
  • No more than 6 credits of GenEd requirements remaining for the B.S. degree
  • One to three letters of recommendation
  • An essay or statement of purpose
  • An interview with the Associate Chair for Undergraduate Studies and the Associate Chair for Graduate Studies.

The bureaucracy of degree times

To the University, you are an undergraduate or a graduate; the bureaucratic hive mind, computing various consequences, chooses not to create a really different category for a student in the combined program. So, if you are a student in the combined degree program, you are required to graduate with the B.S. at some point, and then to be a graduate student for at least two academic year semesters.

When you graduate with the B.S., of course you must have satisfied the B.S. requirements. Satisfaction of the M.A. requirements is a trickier matter, because the usual M.A. requires those 30 grad credits to be taken while a grad student. But you might take 600-700 level courses before the graduation with B.S., and want to count that work toward your combined degree.

The University created a policy to deal with this: an undergraduate is allowed to take up to a total of 12 credits (maximum of 6 credits per semester) of graduate level courses "for graduate credit only". Such courses cannot be used to satisfy any part of the Bachelor's degree requirements, but can be "banked" for later use to satisfy graduate degree requirements. To bank graduate courses you need to apply for permission before taking the courses. There is a form for this called Graduate Credit Permission Form which you can download from the Graduate School website.   On the same webpage there is a form called Combined Bachelor's/Master's Form which you use to indicate the courses (up to 9 credits) from your BS degree which will also be used for the MA degree.    Only graduate courses may be shared.  This form should be completed and approved before you graduate with the BS degree.

All other credits taken toward the graduate degree must be taken after completion of the Bachelor's Degree.  In general, there is no funding for the "5th year" of study.  Also, this program is primarliy geared at students who do not plan to go onto a PhD program.  Students who plan to pursue a PhD will generally go straight into that program after the Bachelor's.

Example Programs

There is a wide variation in coursework and acceleration among students pursuing the combined degree option, and the examples below are not at all exhaustive. In particular, most BS/MA Math students actually take more than two Math classes in some semesters, and on the other hand there can be somewhat less fast-paced paths to the combined degree.   All examples assume that 9 credits of courses taken for the BS degree have been counted towards the MA degree.  In the tables, "thesis" refers to 6 credits of master's thesis research.   Although it is listed for a specific semester, normally the thesis work would be spread out over at least 2 semesters.

Example 1:
Here a student enters the University with Advanced Placement credit for Math 140 (Calculus I). It is compatible with the "M.A. with thesis" option, if the student gets the B.S. after Year 4, but "banks" one of the two sequences of Year 4 for graduate credit only.

Example 2:
Here the student enters the University with AP credit for Math 140 and Math 141, and takes the special honors sequence Math 340-341 (which covers the courses Math 240,241 and 246 with enrichment). The courses below could fit an extremely strong student developing an interest in topology and geometry. The particular course sequence is compatible with the taking of qualifying exams (analysis and algebra) in time for graduation, and thus fits into the "M.A. without thesis" requirements.

The examples above don't list all the courses needed to satisfy degree requirements. For the Math BS/MA, a student would have to complete the following at the required grade point levels:

  • An approved three course "supporting sequence"
  • the University's General Education requirements;
  • a total of 141 credits (the B.S. requires 120 credits and the M.A. requires 30; the total is only 141 on account of the 9 credit overlap allowance)

 

Below are listed past winners of undergraduate awards and scholarships administered by the Department of Mathematics. (For more information on the awards, see the history of the awards..)

Awards were designated in the spring of the years indicated below; Strauss TAs taught and scholarships were received in the following academic year. A dash ("--") indicates we have no record of a winner (in particular, no winner is recorded in the University graduation commencement program of that year). In most or all of these cases, the award was not given in that year. Except for the Mathematics Competition / Krahn scholarships and possibly the dashes, so far as we know the record for scholarships and awards is complete. Any further information is welcome and may be sent to .

There are also photos of past winners in the following years 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
