Upon completion of the program, you’ll be able to:

• Demonstrate analytical skills through problem-solving and logical thinking.
• Write clear, well-formulated mathematical arguments for validating a conjecture.
• Apply mathematical theory to model and solve problems dealing with physical, natural, and societal problems.
• Use technology to solve computational problems including simulation and visualizations of models.
• Adapt to different mathematical software environments (such as Matlab and Mathematica) that are useful for mathematical computing and modeling, and use computer simulation with technological platforms.
• Communicate mathematical concepts and quantitative results clearly and effectively to diverse audiences, especially those who are not mathematical.
• Develop broad, multidisciplinary knowledge across a wide range of mathematically related disciplines such as mathematical modeling, scientific computing, data science, statistics, computational physics, chemistry and biology, engineering, etc.
• Become an exceptionally strong candidate for advanced (graduate) studies in a range of academic areas.

International F-1 students who successfully complete this degree are eligible for an additional 24-month STEM OPT extension to work in the U.S. in an area directly related to their area of study immediately upon completing the customary 12-month post-completion Optional Practical Training (OPT).
