too many science and engineering graduates do not have strong enough backgrounds in computation to take advantage of these recent developments, while many computer science graduates do not have the background in mathematics and science needed for technical fields.

The COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS MAJOR prepares the student to enter a career in industry, government, or business immediately upon graduation or to enter graduate school in computational science, or related areas of applied mathematics such as statistics, management science, operations research, actuarial science or computational biology.

Computational Science Undergraduate Programs

Computational modeling and simulation are indispensable tools in nearly every field of science and engineering. People trained in Computational Science find themselves in very high demand, especially for the most exciting, leading edge work.

degree called Computational Sciences.  The degree will appeal to high school students who want to use high performance computing to solve scientific experiments -- experiments that are revolutionizing science.

Our major industries -- finance firms on Wall Street, pharmaceutical firms and telecommunications companies – all increasingly need and depend upon computational scientists. That is why NJIT decided to offer the degree. And for students who prefer academic research, this degree will prepare them for graduate study in applied math, engineering, quantitative biology and physics. Various options allow students to pursue computational science in the context of different fields.
