Best Applied Mathematics Doctor’s Degree Colleges in Illinois

Unfortunately, there were no schools in Illinois that made our Best Applied Mathematics Doctor's Degree Schools in Illinois list. You may want to check out our national ranking in the field instead.

Average Earnings

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to applied mathematics students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other applied mathematics students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Student Debt - How easy is it for applied mathematics to pay back their student loans after receiving their doctor's degree.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized applied mathematics related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for applied mathematics students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for Illinois

Due to lacking data, we couldn't show you the applied mathematics quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in Illinois that both offer applied mathematics and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
