Contemporary civilization has been profoundly influenced by the enduring interplay between Mathematics and the Sciences. Within this framework, the Department of Applied Mathematics provides graduate students with specialized study options in Control Theory and Dynamical Systems, Fluid Mechanics, Mathematical Medicine and Biology, Mathematical Physics, and Scientific Computation. Student research initiatives employ advanced mathematical applications across diverse scientific disciplines, spanning from optimizing cancer treatments and manipulating shape memory alloys to processing fractal images, advancing quantum computing, and investigating climate patterns, cosmic inflation, and nanoscale technologies. As one of five departments within the University of Waterloo's Faculty of Mathematics - ranked 20th globally for mathematics in the 2015 QS University Rankings - our graduate students enjoy collaborative relationships with the Faculties of Science and Engineering, along with various research centers including those focused on Mathematical Medicine, Theoretical Neuroscience, Quantum Computing, Theoretical Physics, Nanotechnology, Water Research, and Industrial Mathematics. The department provides both Master's and doctoral programs. Our research-intensive Master of Mathematics (MMath) typically requires two years, with graduates either continuing to PhD studies or securing prominent roles in industry and government. The four-year PhD program primarily prepares students for academic research careers, though many also assume influential research and development positions across industrial, governmental, and commercial sectors.
