Applied Mathematics
The Graduate Certificate in Applied Mathematics provides professionals and post-graduate level learners with advanced mathematical skills and tools to construct models, simulate physical systems, and extract parameters using physics-informed inferencing approaches across various high-tech industries.
What will I learn?
How to construct, analyze, and simulate a model and interpret/improve the model based on data. The techniques learned in this certificate can be used to study a system through data collection, modeling, analysis, and physics-informed inferences of parameters. This certificate will help engineers and physicists conduct advanced modeling and analysis of systems by identifying conditions and parameters to improve outcomes.
Why Study Applied Mathematics at NJIT?
The Graduate Certificate in Applied Mathematics focuses on mathematical techniques for simulating and analyzing models constructed for physical systems that arise in engineering and industrial applications. The curriculum is set up by faculty in these fields, and students can apply these techniques immediately.
Prerequisites
Applicants must have an undergraduate degree from an accredited institution and at least twelve credits in mathematics, including the calculus sequence. Students who do not meet these requirements may be admitted if they satisfy the university's admission requirements. An undergraduate GPA of 3.0 (out of 4.0) or equivalent is normally required.
The certificate in Applied Mathematics requires the completion of 4 courses.
