Mathematics Genealogy Project

The brainchild of retired mathematics professor Harry B. Coonce, this site has the modest goal of listing information about everyone who has earned a doctorate in mathematics during the 20th century. This will allow mathematicians to trace their academic "family tree" and discover their advisor's advisor, their advisor's "siblings" at graduate school, and so on. With over 28,000 names from 380 universities and 30,000 records waiting to be organized, the database is off to a good start. Compiled from the respective universities or Dissertation Abstracts, the records include name of degree recipient, university, year in which degree was awarded, dissertation title, name of advisor (linked to a list of their other students), and a list of the degree recipient's students, if any. Users can search the database by personal name (first, middle, or last), school, or year of degree, or browse by first letter of the last name, but due to the size of the database this last option is not recommended.
