The program requires 42 credit hours of coursework, including a core sequence (18 credit hours), an internship sequence (12 credit hours), and a sequence of individually approved courses that are related to a chosen domain of application (12 credit hours). MAA students must satisfactorily complete an internship proposal review with their advisory committee before beginning the internship, which is normally completed during the summer term between the first and second years of the program. Students are also required to present the results of their internship in a departmental colloquium prior to graduation. There is no thesis requirement.
