IGMCS: Interdisciplinary Graduate Minor in Computational Science

  Welcome to the Interdisciplinary Graduate Minor in Computational Science (IGMCS) site. IGMCS is a new, campus-wide academic program developed by faculty from a wide range of campus colleges and departments with an interest in Computational Science. Faculty and students will find here information relevant to the program and its development, including meeting notes, schedules, descriptions, etc. We hope that this site provides a convenient medium of communication for building up this program.

  Computational modeling and simulation are indispensable tools in nearly every field of science and engineering. People trained in Computational Science find themselves in very high demand, especially for the most exciting, leading edge work. Computational Science integrates elements that are normally studied in different parts of the traditional curriculum, but which are not fully covered or combined by any one of them. But where can you go to learn the essentials of this truly interdisciplinary field?

  IGMCS offers students an opportunity to acquire the balanced package of knowledge and skills they need to use computationally intensive methods. Through the IGMCS, graduate students can augment their graduate work in their chosen field with courses from other disciplines that are specifically tailored to round out their education in Computational Science.
