Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Applied & Computational Mathematics] From University College Dublin

Today?s challenges faced by science and engineering are so complex that they can be analysed and solved only through mathematical and computational modelling.

Mathematical models create representations of complex real-world phenomena in a precise, quantitative way. Fundamental insights can then be obtained by analysing these models through a combination of mathematical analysis and computational simulation.

Outside the traditional spheres of science and engineering, mathematical modelling and simulation techniques are increasingly used in the social sciences, communication, business and finance. University College Dublin offers a Bachelor of Science in Applied & Computational Mathematics (Hons) degree.
