Description:

Computational Science and Computational Engineering are rapidly growing multi-disciplinary areas connecting engineering, science, business, mathematics and computer science to create new, powerful tools for real-world discovery and understanding. Computational Science and Computational Engineering are rapidly growing multi-disciplinary areas connecting engineering, science, business, mathematics and computer science to create new, powerful tools for real-world discovery and understanding. Advancements in computing power and computational methodology are allowing leading-edge researchers to effectively utilize computational simulation, modeling and optimization to pursue investigations into territories that were previously beyond their reach using theoretical analysis and physical experimentation. The School has been established to address this need through the creation of multidisciplinary research and education programs of international distinction within a unique collaborative environment.
