Where Can I Find PhD Programs in Math with a Number Theory Focus?

AI Thread Summary
To find PhD programs in math with a focus on number theory, consider consulting academic faculty in your current math department for recommendations. They may provide insights into schools that offer number theory, even if they are not top-tier institutions. Additionally, exploring online resources or academic databases that compile graduate programs can be beneficial. It’s important to identify schools with strong math departments that align with your qualifications. Engaging with faculty and utilizing academic networks can help uncover suitable options.

I'm trying to find PhD programs in math that offer number theory as a focus. Where do I find this sort of information besides looking at each individual school? Is there some sort of catalogue or list that readily offers this information?

Presumably you're doing an undergrad degree in a place with a math department. Find out who among your faculty does number theory, and ask them. If nobody does number theory, ask an algebraist.
 
The only places that my professors know about are top tier schools, which I doubt I can get into. I need a school that has a good math department, but not THAT good. Any other suggestions?
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'What are the best A-Level options for someone wanting to do Physics?'

Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
