Computational Science - The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey

Computational Science from The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey is a Campus Master Computer and Information Science degree that prepares you for a IT career. Computational science is an interdisciplinary field involving applied mathematics , computer science, and other disciplines such as engineering and business used to make quantitative predictions: How will a newly designed aircraft behave under conditions of operation? How can we design and manage the next generation of air traffic control systems? If we synthesize a new pharmaceutical with a given chemical formula, how will it behave? What is the ultimate fate of pollutants generated in urban areas? How do river and estuary ecosystems respond to natural and human perturbations? How do decisions made by individuals within a crowd affect the flow patterns of these crowds in urban areas? How do we solve science and engineering problems using advanced optimization techniques? Computational scientists employ modeling and simulation, or the development of mathematical descriptions and representations of real systems and objects. These mathematical models are then used to examine the behavior of the real system under future conditions or under historical conditions. Models may also be used to allow someone to experience, virtually, a situation or phenomenon (flight simulation and the increasingly popular Wii? being the most obvious examples to the general public). The program offers two tracks, one emphasizes computation in the sciences and the other applies computation in the broader fields of modeling and simulation.
