I'm actually planning on doing a second masters from a slightly more prestigious university with a more theory-heavy degree [1], but it's nice to at least have an official graduate degree now. Hopefully it helps me find work a bit quicker, and if nothing else it's just kind of fun to pile up degrees.
I couldn’t find anything that ticks all those outside of OU.
University of Texas has one that looked pretty ok, but it was kind of expensive for a non-Texas resident.
University of Western Florida has one for “Mathematical Sciences”, which more or less fits, and it’s not even that expensive, but I think that one is synchronous.
Yeah, I wish there were more options than that. Also, remote phd or master+phd would be even better, but these are even more uncommon and pricey (unless you know about a one that is good and cheap and remote then I’d love to learn more)
I was doing the University of York online PhD in computer science (formal methods), and it was actually pretty great, but it was costing me like $17,000 per year, and it was a huge time sink when I was already working full time.
That said, if you feel like you're organized enough to pull it off, I do recommend looking into University of York. It's a very good school.
Oh I get it now, thanks! Please let me know if you decide to enroll to math master's in OU, maybe we can help each other! I think I'll do the same on the next semester (so early 2026)
