Master of Science in Applied and Industrial Mathematics (STEM)

Program Overview

The Master of Science program provides students with a broad knowledge in applied mathematics with an emphasis on areas with the highest demand in business and industry. Among the areas stressed in the program are mathematical modeling, numerical computations, operations research, financial mathematics and statistical analysis. Numerical, computational and algorithmic approaches to problem solving are stressed throughout the program. Graduates of the program will be qualified to work in such fields as operations research, stochastic modeling, financial data analysis and statistics, among many others. Graduates of the program will also be prepared for further work at the doctoral level.

The main objectives of the program are:

  1. To prepare individuals to apply advanced mathematical skills to problems in areas of science, business and industry;
  2. To develop the students’ abilities to integrate, in a meaningful way, the use of technology in their everyday professional practice;
  3. To give educators an opportunity to satisfy their in-service requirements and simultaneously enhance their knowledge of technology and enrich their mathematical backgrounds;
  4. To supply students with the mathematical competency necessary for advancement to a more professional role;
  5. To educate students to solve problems, to work in teams and to communicate in an interdisciplinary setting;
  6. To familiarize students with the recent advances in applied mathematics;
  7. To prepare students for further graduate work at the doctoral level in applied mathematics; and
  8. To enrich the academic culture by providing opportunities for interaction of mathematical and industrial research.
