Best Universities for Applied Mathematics in North America
Updated:
Below is a list of best universities in North America ranked based on their research performance in Applied Mathematics. A graph of 9.16M citations received by 321K academic papers made by 399 universities in North America was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.
We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
