Programs Name on Math degree, what is better: Applied or general?
Course wise I am still going to be exiting with two terms of abstract algebra, 2 terms of advanced calculus and a years worth of real analysis so in terms of theory I won't be short on it. It's more an issue of degree title, which has more value?- Mathmaybe

Programs Name on Math degree, what is better: Applied or general?
So I want to go into applied mathematics, I can either get a general math degree or an "applied and computational" degree. Does the degree title make a difference? The general math degree I can graduate a term sooner with, the main differences in the courses is that for the applied and...- Mathmaybe

Other Should I Become a Mathematician?
Thank you for the recommendations. You are correct that it would be a second(or really a third) course, there seems to be some inconsistencies in how people refer to a subject. Anyway about the books, it seems like a lot of high level books are purposefully obtuse/difficult in both the...- Mathmaybe

Other Should I Become a Mathematician?
What is your Recommendation for books on real analysis with an applied bent? Folland is unpleasant to read, Roydens is pretty good but it has a massive list of errors. I want something slightly chatty, emphasizing institution as well as of course, formal proofs.- Mathmaybe

Applied Mathematics and Electrical Engineering
As an undergraduate I probably would only officially take a circuit analysis sequence and maybe one on semiconductors. In terms of graduate program integration I was thinking of something involving signal processing or something else interesting. I do tinker with electronics, made robots using...- Mathmaybe

Schools Freaking out - Not sure if I have a shot at grad school
From what I have seen, you can always get into some graduate school(low tier one) if you have any competency in your field at all. It may only offer a terminal masters degree though, at which point you can apply for a PhD some place. Another general suggestion is, if you live close to a...- Mathmaybe

Applied Mathematics and Electrical Engineering
Hi, I posted a thread a while back about a problem I had in a class, it has resolved itself fortunately but now I have another question. I am an undergraduate mathematics major and I initially planed to go to(and likely will go to) graduate school in applied mathematics. I have always had a...- Mathmaybe

Terrible experience in first integration (lebesgue) class
Afraid not, we're 2/3 done. I don't think the way this class is being taught is right for anyone unfortunately.- Mathmaybe

Terrible experience in first integration (lebesgue) class
Hello. I am in an undergraduate math major in an introductory graduate class on integration theory and it has truly been an unpleasant experience. I feel the instructor(who is teaching it for the first time) is pretty much completely disconnected from the students in his assignments and...- Mathmaybe
