Master of Mathematics in Pure Mathematics - Mathematical Logic

University of Waterloo

Logic became a subject in its own right toward the end of the nineteenth century at which time its primary application was toward the foundations of mathematics. Today mathematical logic is a thriving part of the mainstream of mathematics itself, pursuing its own goals but also interacting heavily with algebra, analysis, geometry and number theory. Discover the Master of Mathematics in Pure Mathematics program, where you’ll explore the boundary of mathematics and pure reason.With over 80 faculty, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in the department, the breadth of research in pure mathematics is huge. This grants you the freedom to explore areas of focus that specifically resonate with you. Algebra, analysis, geometry and topology, and number theory make up the core research areas of pure mathematics, all of which can easily be applied to the real world in significant ways. Finance and cryptography are current examples of real-life applications of the field.
