The MAMS (Master in Applied Mathematical Sciences) program equips students with mathematical expertise for careers in business, government, or industry. This program cultivates applied mathematicians capable of addressing both quantitative and qualitative challenges in real-world scenarios, spanning fields like industrial design software, operations research, engineering, and systems analysis. Ideal for professionals seeking to enhance their practical mathematical abilities, MAMS bridges theory and application.
Offered by the Mathematics Department, the MAMS degree emphasizes interdisciplinary learning. A key component involves students tackling individual projects sourced from diverse applied fields such as physics, agricultural engineering, ecology, oceanography, or financial mathematics. Relevant advanced coursework may supplement these projects. Participants document their findings in comprehensive technical reports and deliver formal presentations to faculty. These reports must thoroughly outline the problem, present mathematical methodologies and outcomes, and contextualize results within the original challenge.
