Computational science is the field of study that uses computers to analyze and solve scientific problems. More than 750,000 jobs in the United States alone will be created in this sector in the next six years. CWU's computational science master's program is the first of its kind in the Pacific Northwest.
The heart of the program offered by Central Washington University is computer-related, but the applications will be studied in the context of a number of scientific domains, including:
- biological sciences
- environmental sciences
- chemistry
- computer science
- geology
- physics
- mathematics
