Summary
Applied Mathematics — develops and applies mathematical models, numerical algorithms, optimization, and statistical/computational methods (on HPC/GPU architectures) to solve scientific and mission-driven problems. Distinct from sibling Data Science/ML focuses (which center on data products and learned models) and from pure Computational/Statistics focuses: this focus is anchored in formulating real-world problems as mathematical models and designing/analyzing the numerical methods that solve them at scale.
