About Bachelor of Arts - Numerical Computation
The Numerical Computation major is an interdisciplinary major, jointly administered by the Computer Science and Mathematics Departments.
This major is designed for students who are interested in learning to use computers for modeling and simulation as a tool for discovery across many areas of science, engineering and other quantitative disciplines.
Students who complete this major may choose careers in business, industry, research or education in which they use computers to improve the design and safety of products, to discover new ideas or to aid in the understanding of the world. They will be able to work collaboratively and bring mathematics and computer science to bear on problems of interest across varied disciplines. This major is ideal preparation for students who want to continue with graduate study in the field of computational science, which often involves aspects of mathematics, computer science and another scientific discipline such as chemistry or economics. Students in this major are strongly encouraged to complete a minor in another scientific or related discipline.
The Numerical Computation major offers students a choice of two concentrations: discrete numerical computation and numerical computation over the continuum.
The concentration in discrete numerical computation is intended to educate a student in the areas of mathematics and computer science that deal with intrinsically discrete computations. Students who graduate with this major will be well prepared for graduate studies in a classical computer science program with a focus on discrete modeling, an applied mathematics program with a focus on discrete dynamical systems or an area of computational science such as bioinformatics.
The concentration in numerical computation over the continuum is intended to educate a student in the areas of mathematics and computer science that deal with problems originating in the continuum. Students who graduate with this major will be well prepared for graduate studies in applied mathematics or a computational approach to another discipline such as computational biology, chemistry, or finance.
