Overview

The primary aim of applied mathematics is to elucidate scientific concepts and to describe and predict phenomena through the use of mathematics. The applied mathematician is at once a mathematical specialist and a systems analyst whose task is to confront complex real-world problems with mathematical analysis. In business and industry, the applied mathematician has opportunities to utilize both background and training in solving problems of a practical nature. To do so, one must know the mathematical theories involved and have an appreciation for the specific science or technology that provides the source of the problem. CR/NC grades are not acceptable in courses to be counted for a mathematics major or minor program.

Program Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of the Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics a student will be able to:

  1. develop basic programming skills and use of various software such as Mathematica, Matlab, SAS, and R; apply these skills to solve problems in optimization, applied linear algebra, differential equations, and statistical inference.
  2. formulate and analyze mathematical conjectures, construct proofs in sound mathematical English, and use these skills to write proofs of statements in linear algebra, abstract algebra, and analysis.
  3. develop practical insights in modeling real-world phenomena using a model toolbox of (partial) differential equations, optimization, applied analysis and linear algebra, and use numerical methods to obtain solutions in probing such models.
  4. communicate effectively to a variety of audiences using oral, written, and visual modes.
