Good math schools for algebra and logic

[gravenewworld]

I want to go to grad school for math and specialize in algebra and maybe math logic, anyone have recommendations? where can i find info on schools and their specialization in math This is my math background:

Calc 3
Diff eq w/ linear alg.
Foundations of Mathematics
Advanced Calc
Combinatorics
Complex analysis
linear algebra
game theory
topology
modern algebra
independent study on ring and field theory
seminar in mathematics
independent study on mathematical logic: computability and godel's theorems
grad course on geometry
grad course on linear algebra
grad course on number theory
infinity and paradoxes

Im also getting a bs in chemistry and a minor in economics if that matters for anything.

Congratulations on your strong math background and your interest in pursuing graduate studies in algebra and logic! Here are a few recommendations for good math schools that specialize in these areas:

1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) - MIT's Department of Mathematics has a strong focus on algebra and logic, with faculty members conducting research in areas such as algebraic geometry, representation theory, and mathematical logic. They offer both master's and doctoral programs in mathematics, as well as a joint program in mathematics and computer science.

2. University of California, Berkeley - With a top-ranked math department, UC Berkeley offers a wide range of courses and research opportunities in algebra and logic. Their Algebra and Logic group covers topics such as algebraic geometry, number theory, and model theory. They also have a joint program in mathematics and computer science.

3. University of Chicago - The Department of Mathematics at University of Chicago has a strong emphasis on pure mathematics, including algebra and logic. They offer graduate programs in algebra, geometry/topology, and mathematical logic, as well as a joint program in mathematics and computer science.

4. University of Wisconsin-Madison - The Department of Mathematics at UW-Madison has a renowned algebra group, with faculty members specializing in algebraic geometry, representation theory, and algebraic topology. They also have a strong logic group, with research in areas such as computability theory and model theory.

In addition to these specific schools, you can also search for graduate programs in mathematics that have a strong focus on algebra and logic. Some helpful resources for finding this information include the American Mathematical Society's list of graduate programs in mathematics and the Mathematics Genealogy Project, which lists the research interests and affiliations of mathematicians.

Your background in chemistry and economics may also be valuable for certain areas of algebra and logic, such as mathematical economics and applications of algebra to chemistry. Be sure to look for schools that have interdisciplinary connections in these areas as well.

Best of luck in your search for the perfect graduate program in mathematics!
