The Graduate Group in Applied Mathematics and Computational Science of the University of Pennsylvania offers a full graduate program in mathematics, conferring the degrees of Master of Arts (M.A.), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) . The educational aim of this program is to provide well-rounded training for careers in research, teaching or industrial work in which advanced mathematics, or large scale computation is used in an essential way.
The graduate group offers introductory courses in applied mathematics, with a great number of courses on relevant subjects offered by other departments and graduate groups throughout the University.
The AMCS Graduate Program is structured so as to guide each student, year by year, in the transition from having been an undergraduate to becoming a professional applied mathematician/computational scientist.
