EMPHASIS
IN COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE Here the student is extensively trained to use computation as a powerful tool where analytical methods are inadequate. There is a heavy concentration on learning to use these tools. Therefore courses in computer science and numerical methods are required. The student also completes a 3 unit senior project as a capstone course. Preparation for the Major Three semesters of
Calculus (Math 150,151 and 252), Math Software Workshop (Math 241); Discrete
Mathematics (Math 245), Linear Algebra (Math 254), Introduction to Computer
Programming (CS 107 and 108), Visualization (CS 205) and Statistical Principles
and Practices (Stat 250) for a total of 32 units
Major
A minimum of 36 upper division units to include Mathematics 336, 337, 521A, 524, 534A; at least nine units from Mathematics 525, 532, 537, 541 or 544, 542, 543, Computer Science 558, 575; three units of Mathematics 499 (Senior Project); and nine units of electives from computer science, mathematics, or statistics (approved by the Applied Mathematics adviser). Students must complete an outline of the major and file a copy signed by an adviser with the Office of the Registrar. Emphasis
in Applied Mathematics
