Those interested should write to the address above for application materials and a departmental brochure, which gives greater detail on programs, offerings, admission, degree requirements, and financial aid. Opportunity also exists for specializing in computational science and engineering within the department's graduate programs via the Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) Option.

Students in this program will spend approximately equal proportions of their study at the Urbana-Champaign campus and at the National University of Singapore (NUS), taking courses and/or working on their research. The project comprising the research component of the Ph.D. will be cooperatively overseen by faculty at Illinois and NUS. Students pursuing the multi-institutional degree must meet all of the requirements of the existing Ph.D. programs at each of the two institutions. Courses taken at each university must be approved by the other university before they are taken in order to be credited toward degree requirements.
