Applied Mathematics & Statistics, and Scientific Computation

AMSC Program Overview

The goal of the Applied Mathematics & Statistics, and Scientific Computation (AMSC) Program is to promote training in interdisciplinary research. AMSC offers Ph.D. and Master's degrees with concentrations in either Applied Mathematics, Applied Statistics and Scientific Computation, as well as Certificates in Scientific Computation for students obtaining degrees in other UMCP graduate programs. We offer a spectrum of courses at the forefront of computation and applications, as well as state-of-the-art computational, visualization and networking facilities.

Students in our program have the opportunity to do truly interdisciplinary research. Our program is structured in such a way that offers students great flexibility in creating a plan of study and research that suits their interdisciplinary needs and interests.

AMSC is sponsored by the Department of Mathematics, the Center for Scientific Computation and Mathematical Modeling (CSCAMM), and the Institute for Physical Science and Technology (IPST), and is affiliated with fourteen participating departments and institutes at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Our program is ranked among the top in the nation. AMSC is involved in collaborative research with major Federal research institutes in the Washington, D.C. area: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Naval Research Laboratory, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
