Overview

In approaching a particular problem, applied mathematicians use physical insight, intuition, and their mathematical knowledge to create models-often in the form of differential equations-to describe the salient processes controlling the system.

Often these equations are too complicated for an explicit solution to be determined, and one seeks either approximate solutions or appropriate numerical methods through the use of computers. This Applied Mathematics program is offered at the University of Alberta.
