Johns Hopkins applied math and statistics student majors are encouraged to develop an appreciation for the role mathematical modeling plays in decision making and the building of scientific knowledge.<\/p>\n

We provide our students with a solid mathematical foundation by covering discrete mathematics, optimization, probability, statistics, and differential equations. We also allow students the flexibility to explore other disciplines, including ones in which mathematics plays a critical role, such as biology, biomedical engineering, finance, and economics. Students often find they can pursue interests in disciplines for which the connection to mathematics is not as obvious, such as environmental engineering, computer science, finance, and economics.<\/p>\n

Students interested in pursuing a major in Applied Mathematics and Statistics will need to submit an Add Major\/Minor Request Form through SIS, and meet with Carly Ramer.\u00a0 Please send your unofficial transcripts to\u00a0<\/span>cramer1@jhu.edu<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>and set up an advising appointment\u00a0<\/span>here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
