Pursue a PhD in combinatorics at Georgia Tech.
Georgia Tech has two PhD programs in which students can study combinatorics, the interdisciplinary PhD in Algorithms, Combinatorics, and Optimization and the PhD program in Mathematics. See more information on each to the right.
Georgia Tech is one of the most active research centers in combinatorics in the whole world, and one of the few places to have researchers specializing in all areas of combinatorics, from probabilistic and extremal, to algebraic, to arithmetic, and to graph theory. Students have a wide range of core courses and special topics courses to choose from, many seminars and activities to attend, and many opportunities to pursue research with combinatorics faculty.
PhD in Algorithms, Combinatorics and Optimization (ACO)
The ACO PhD program is a joint program between the School of Mathematics, School of Computer Science, and School of Industrial and Systems Engineering. Each ACO student has one of the three as a “home department” and takes classes in all three schools.
ACO students may be advised by any ACO faculty, regardless of home department.
For more information on the program and admissions, see here.
PhD in Mathematics
The School of Mathematics at Georgia Tech has a thriving PhD program in which students specialize in areas of mathematics such as Discrete Mathematics and Combinatorics, Geometry and Topology, Probability, Statistics, Analysis, and Applied Mathematics.
