APPLIED MATHEMATICAL
SCIENCES - BS,
COMPUTATIONAL EMPHASIS
Many advances in technology and business are achieved by people
applying technical knowledge from statistics, computing science,
finance, economics and mathematics. The curriculum in applied
mathematical sciences provides study in all of these areas, with
ample electives available to allow further in-depth study of any of
these areas. In fact, there are six emphases in this curriculum: Applied
Mathematics, Statistics, Actuarial Science, Economics, Biological Science
and Scientific Computing. The Actuarial Science emphasis includes
mathematical finance.
A student completing this program is prepared to enter employment with
analytical and quantitative tools relevant to technological industries and/
or modern financial markets. On the other hand, with the appropriate
electives chosen, the student is prepared to enter quantitatively oriented
graduate schools. All advising for this degree option is done through the
Undergraduate Program Office in the Department of Mathematics.
