Applied Math Graduate Program

What is Applied Mathematics? 

Applied mathematics involves the utilization of mathematical tools to address real-world scientific challenges while also advancing and perfecting these methodologies. The arsenal of an applied mathematician encompasses a diverse array of techniques, including modeling, analytical methods, approximation methods, computational methods, and others. These multifaceted elements of applied mathematics are seamlessly integrated into research across numerous domains, such as physics, biology, medicine, fluid mechanics, economics, image processing, and information processing. Interestingly, common mathematical structures frequently emerge in problems spanning various fields, illustrating the interconnectedness of subjects like fluid mechanics and game theory.
