Residency Requirements. After formal admission to the doctoral program, the student must complete a 36-unit residency at the University of California, San Diego, of which a maximum of 12 units can be upper division undergraduate courses (100 level). Lower division undergraduate courses do not count toward residency. Students must also complete an 18-unit residency at San Diego State University. The residency requirements cannot be replaced by coursework taken elsewhere.
Language Requirement. There is no formal language requirement for the program.

Two Doctoral Research Courses
Additional Requirements for Students Entering with a Master’s Degree in Mathematics or Science Education
Students who are admitted into the doctoral program with a master’s degree in mathematics or science education will increase the breadth and depth of their disciplinary knowledge by fulfilling the requirements specified: 1) Students complete three graduate-level courses in mathematics or science, as appropriate, chosen in consultation with their advisor 2) Students complete at least one of these courses at SDSU and one of these courses at UCSD. The requirements must be completed prior to the second year examination; however, students are strongly encouraged to complete the courses in Year 1. A grade of B or better must be earned in each course.
