Approximate Solutions to Mathematical Problems Using Computers
Many disciplines in the natural sciences, engineering and economics seek accurate and reliable approximations to mathematical problems where exact solutions are not known to exist. Giants such as Ford Motor Company and Caterpillar utilize scientific computing to complement experimental and theoretical data collected in their manufacturing process. Companies such as Pfizer and AstraZeneca use computational tools to develop the next generation of drug delivery technologies. Because scientific computing falls at the intersection of applied mathematics, computing and domain knowledge, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) professionals with skills in scientific computing are in high demand!
