Computational and Applied Mathematics 

Minor

Level up your Mines degree

Applied Mathematics and Statistics programs at Colorado School of Mines prepare students to design and implement solutions to practical, real-world problems in science, engineering and many other fields.

In an increasingly data-driven world, a minor or area of special interest in computational and applied mathematics will equip students with the tools to understand complex problems but also solve them using the power of mathematics.
