Applied and Computational Mathematics Master of Science Program

Department of Mathematics | Faculty of Science
¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Calendar 2013 Summer

¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Requirements

Applicants normally submit scores in the aptitude section and an appropriate advanced section of the Educational Testing Service’s graduate record examinations. Applicants with backgrounds in areas other than mathematics (for example, a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent in engineering or physics) may be considered suitably prepared for these programs.

Program Requirements

Core Course Requirements

Normally courses that are cross-listed as undergraduate courses cannot be used to satisfy graduate course requirements.

Beyond all the courses the student completed for the bachelor's degree, the candidate will complete 26 units, normally completed during five terms, that is comprised of one of

  • APMA 900 Asymptotic Analysis of Differential Equations (4)
  • APMA 901 Partial Differential Equations (4)

and one of

  • APMA 920 Numerical Linear Algebra (4)
  • APMA 922 Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations (4)

and one of

  • APMA 930 Computational Fluid Dynamics (4)
  • APMA 935 Analysis and Computation of Models (4)

and at least one other course from the above course lists that has not already been completed

and an additional seven graduate units.

and a further three units which may be chosen from either graduate or 400 division undergraduate courses

Academic Requirements within the Graduate General Regulations

All graduate students must satisfy the academic requirements that are specified in the graduate general regulations (residence, course work, academic progress, supervision, research competence requirement, completion time, and degree completion), as well as the specific requirements for the program in which they are enrolled, as shown above.
