应用数学
RWU的应用数学超越了理论, using math and statistics to solve practical real-world problems in fields like chemistry, 环境科学与科学计算. With small class sizes and opportunities to co-author publications with faculty, our 应用数学 program will set you up for a successful career in business, 工程, 卫生保健, 政府及其他机构.
The 应用数学 major prepares students for a variety of career opportunities. Just few examples are that many graduates find employment in the banking and investment sector, 而其他人则从事咨询工作, 保险, 制药, software and service companies; some of our students also go on to graduate or law school.
Several factors distinguish Roger Williams University from the competition. For starters, small class size means more personalized attention from our faculty members. Our students are involved on campus—as math tutors and as members of the 数学 Honor Society. 不像其他机构, our talented students get to co-author math publications with our faculty. 事实上, our students are currently working on the Numerical Solution of the Helmholtz Equation for the Pseudosphere, and Foundations of General Relativity and some speculations on the Einstein-Grossmann Collaboration.
