About this course:

  • The Master of Product Design and Development Management program at Northwestern University is a duration of 9-months.
  • Students can complete the program on a part-time or full-time basis.
  • The program is designed for students who want a background in basic applied math skills.
  • The core courses cover key material that is beyond the undergraduate level to improve students' skills and form a foundation for a career in applied mathematics.
  • Students typically take four classes per quarter to complete the twelve-course requirement in three quarters. 
  • The basic classes focus on both analytical and computational methods in applied mathematics.
  • The computational sequence of courses will give the student the necessary training to move into positions in the industry requiring advanced knowledge of computational methods for partial differential methods, stochastic differential equations, and modern methods in parallel computing.
