Facilities for Graduate Work
Support facilities for work in computational science, engineering, and mathematics include the Kuehne Physics Mathematics Astronomy Library, the McKinney Engineering Library, the Mallet Chemistry Library, the Walter Geology Library, the Perry-CastaƱeda Library, and the Life Science Library. Extensive computing facilities are available, including a scientific visualization laboratory and an Ethernet network supporting more than 250 general-purpose Linux, SGI, IBM, and Apple workstations. Other computational resources include seven parallel supercomputers, each a Linux-based Beowulf cluster of 16 to 256 cores. Shared and distributed parallel computers maintained by the Department of Computer Sciences are also available, as are workstations in several academic departments in the Cockrell School of Engineering and the College of Natural Sciences. Faculty members and graduate students also have access to the resources of the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC).
Areas of Study
Graduate study in computational science, engineering, and mathematics comprises three areas: applicable mathematics, numerical analysis and scientific computation, and mathematical modeling and applications. Within these broad areas, the student may take courses and conduct research in numerical analysis and scientific computing, applicable mathematics, computational mechanics and physics, parallel computing and computer architecture, and mathematical modeling, and in supporting areas in engineering and science that involve mathematical modeling of physical phenomena and engineering systems.
