Program in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics (MPP): Graduate students encouraged to apply* The Doctor of Science program in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics (MPP) in Schmid College of Science and Technology at Chapman University is currently open to applications. Admission to the program requires a Master’s degree in mathematics, philosophy, physics, or a related field. Students who are currently enrolled in a Master’s program, as well as professionals working in private research agencies, are encouraged to apply. Please apply via the Graduate Application on the MPP website <https://schmidcollegeofscienceandtechnology.cmail20.com/t/r-l-tdkttlkl-nqltfujd-t/> . *Program Overview* The Doctor of Science in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics (MPP) is a post-master’s-level doctoral program consisting of 54 credits to be completed over a three-year curriculum that leads to a D.Sc. degree. It is an innovative, cross-disciplinary program that focuses on the foundational pillars of the sciences. The D.Sc. is a research-focused degree that is usually offered in science-related fields. It is considered the academic equivalent of the more commonly awarded Ph.D., and also culminates in a doctoral dissertation. Following traditions dating back to Plato, the MPP program is grounded in the fundamental relationship between mathematics, philosophy, and the physical sciences. The MPP program acknowledges that achieving a more complete insight requires not only mastering depth within a particular discipline, but also exploring the broader context and mutual influences between all three fundamental disciplines. The MPP program encourages strong and authentic interdisciplinary collaboration within a vibrant intellectual culture. The successful student will be awarded a D.Sc. degree with emphasis in one of the three foundational disciplines and will also develop a deeper understanding of how their primary discipline interacts with and is informed by the connections to the other disciplines. The curriculum contains selected didactic courses, which serve to train students in research and communication skills common to all three disciplines. The remaining research credits are personalized to each student’s background in close collaboration with their Doctoral Supervisor and interdisciplinary Research Committee, with the goal of enabling the student to produce high-quality and competitive doctoral research in their primary discipline. Please see the MPP overview in the Graduate Catalog <https://schmidcollegeofscienceandtechnology.cmail20.com/t/r-l-tdkttlkl-nqltfujd-i/> for further information about the program’s curriculum and requirements. *Fellowship Opportunities* The MPP Program will offer full funding (consisting of tuition waiver, non-tuition fellowship, and teaching salary as a Graduate Student Instructor) to a select number of applicants for the 2025–2026 academic year. To be considered for fellowships, applications must be submitted by the priority deadline of *January 15, 2025*. Further applicants may be admitted with an offer of tuition fellowship only. *Career Possibilities* In the competitive academic world, increasing value is placed on researchers whose work spans multiple disciplines. A doctoral program that leads to a D.Sc. degree in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics (with emphasis in the chosen primary discipline) better suits the current academic market. The program gives prominence to research in the primary discipline while also requiring demonstrated competence in a secondary discipline. Upon completion, the student will be well prepared for future career goals in both the academic and industrial job sectors. *Research Projects* The faculty of the MPP Program conduct research in a wide range of fields related to mathematics, philosophy, and physics, and many of them specialize in the intersection of two or more disciplines. Examples of research areas include: - History and philosophy of mathematics and logic - Universal algebra, lattice theory, residuated lattices, algebraic logic, substructural logics, enumerative combinatorics - Geometric theory of functions, number theory - Quantum information science, quantum computation, and the foundations of quantum physics Chapman is home to the Institute for Quantum Studies <https://schmidcollegeofscienceandtechnology.cmail20.com/t/r-l-tdkttlkl-nqltfujd-d/>, which is a hub for research and public outreach in a variety of specialized areas of quantum mechanics, with particular emphasis on the foundations of quantum mechanics, and quantum information. IQS organizes a program of conferences, workshops, and public outreach events with the goal of advancing the progress and public awareness of frontier research in these areas. *Program Highlights* As you are considering programs in math, philosophy, or physics, consider what sets the MPP program at Chapman apart: - Because the program maintains small cohorts (with a total of about 18 graduate students enrolled in the program at any given time), each student is able to closely collaborate with their faculty mentors. - Hands-on, innovative research and communication of the disciplines through effective teaching play a central role. Graduate students are given the opportunity to teach undergraduate courses in their primary discipline, which provides them with essential teaching experience before they enter the job market. - The interdisciplinary and personalized nature of the program prepares students for employment in academia, private research centers, and public and private agencies. Researchers whose work spans multiple disciplines are increasingly in demand in competitive job markets. - A select number of admitted students each year are offered full funding packages consisting of tuition fellowship, fellowship for cost of living, and salary for teaching positions. - MPP students have many opportunities to meet and collaborate with renowned international scholars, for example: - The weekly MPP Seminar <https://schmidcollegeofscienceandtechnology.cmail20.com/t/r-l-tdkttlkl-nqltfujd-h/> / Graduate Colloquium consists of participants who are invited guest speakers and experts in various interdisciplinary topics related to math, philosophy, and physics, as well as Chapman faculty in these fields. The MPP students also present on their research as part of this Colloquium. - MPP organizes a yearly international conference where MPP students have the opportunity to meet and discuss with invited scholars in these fields.
