Applied Mathematics
Description
Mathematics is an essential part of scientific development. By itself, mathematics is a subject of great depth and beauty. But mathematics is also crucial in the development of natural sciences, engineering and social sciences. At UC Merced, several professors focus on interdisciplinary, applied mathematics. Their focus is in solving real-world problems using modeling, analysis and scientific computing.
