The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMS) at Claremont Graduate University is preparing new generations of mathematical scientists for positions in education, industry, and government laboratories.

We offer a variety of master’s and doctoral degree programs, with a strong applied research component. Through our internationally recognized Engineering & Computational Mathematics Clinic, we provide students first-hand experience in solving significant mathematical problems for industry and government clients. Together with the five other mathematics departments within the Claremont Colleges (Pomona, Scripps, Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer), we run regular research seminars and colloquia.
