Computational Mathematics (Minor)

Dig into the concepts of applying mathematical work into computing technologies with a Minor in Computational Mathematics, and discover how much programming depends on mathematics. 

Computational mathematics can be a great complement to many majors, especially in the computer and natural sciences. Improve programming efficiency with mathematical concepts, or identify numerical methods of solving physical or biological models. Developing computational tools to better understand data can be useful in investing, finance, or risk management.

The Minor in Computational Mathematics delves into topics such as numerical linear algebra, computational algebraic geometry, numerical methods of differential equations, and mathematical modeling.

Discover new methods of solving real-world problems by creating new solutions with training in computational mathematics. This training not only will help while working within a team, but also will aid in team leadership.
