About Applied Mathematics
A separate unit from the Graduate Program in Mathematics at the Department of Mathematics, the Graduate Interdisciplinary Program in Applied Mathematics offers core courses in numerical analysis, applied analysis, and mathematical methods. Students in this program study the applications of mathematics, with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary research at the interface of mathematics and the physical, life and engineering sciences. It is common for students in this program to have advisors from other departments.
Each student's program of study is more or less individually designed, although all students must satisfy certain basic requirements that include a first year of core studies. Students are encouraged from an early stage to explore and work on a variety of research problems. These opportunities are provided through a carefully designed program starting with a first year research seminar, term papers, third semester research projects, Independent Study courses with individual faculty, various research working groups and ultimately, supervised dissertation research.
Information about the program, preparedness for the Program and prerequisites can be found on the Applied Mathematics website!
