I think the funding in pure math is not going down in recent years. Nor are math departments much smaller than they were say ten years ago. Otherwise I'm sure how best to give evidence of math departments not shutting down! Do I list healthy math departments?
- auggierose 3y agoI guess this would be a case of applied math ;-) Joking aside, of course it is not on you to provide evidence. I would probably start with seeing how many universities have pure math departments over a time axis from now back to 2000 or so. It might even be that the total funding increases, but is more centralised in the big universities. So a total funding timeline would also be good.
