RemarksFor AM/Econ students considering pursuing an Economics PhD (and for any AM student considering a PhD in applied mathematics), we recommend real analysis (Math 112 - see the remark above about gaining proof experience before Math 112). In addition, optimization (AM 121 or Math 116) may also be of particular interest to AM/Econ students.
Five courses from an area of application in which mathematics has been substantively applied, selected to provide a coherent and cumulative introduction to mathematically-oriented aspects of the field. See Areas of Application for sample five-course plans.
Students who satisfy the Honors requirement without a thesis are eligible for Honors if their coursework meets the concentration GPA cutoff on their final plan of study for the concentration. The concentration GPA cutoff is 3.65 for the Class of 2024. It is 3.72 for the Class of 2025
The Committee on Undergraduate Studies in Applied Mathematics votes the level of English honors to be recommended (No Honors, Honors, High Honors, Highest Honors). A thesis is required for High or Highest honors, or for Honors with a GPA below the concentration GPA cutoff for honors without a thesis. For thesis writers, recommendations for the level of honors depend on the grade average in the courses included in the final plan of study, the rigor of the overall record, and the completion and evaluation of the senior thesis.
The secondary field in Mathematical Sciences is jointly sponsored by the the Mathematics Department and the Applied Mathematics concentration. Students are required to take four courses in either Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, or Statistics of which at most two can be in Statistics. The Mathematics and Applied Mathematics courses must be numbered 104 or higher; Statistics courses must be numbered 110 or higher.
The abbreviation of the journal title "Applied mathematics e-notes" is "Appl. Math. E-Notes". It is the recommended abbreviation to be used for abstracting, indexing and referencing purposes and meets all criteria of the ISO 4 standard for abbreviating names of scientific journals.
The International Organization for Standardization has developed the ISO 4 abbreviation system as a means of creating uniform abbreviations for journal titles. This allows researchers and academics to easily recognize and refer to journals in a consistent manner.
Journal title abbreviations are divided into ISO (International Organization for Standardization) for broad disciplines, NLM (National Library of Medicine) for biomedical and life sciences, and CASSI (CAS Source Index) for chemistry and related fields.
Applied mathematics is the practical application of math in specific subjects, fields, industries, or areas of human endeavor, like the natural or physical sciences, engineering, information technology, the social sciences, or business.
Essentially, this concentration combines math with specialized knowledge in another field. Those who practice applied mathematics develop numerical models or formulas to explore process improvements or to solve specific problems.
Earning a concentration in applied mathematics is also a good choice if you want to work in fields like systems biology, data mining or privacy, materials science, computer animation and digital imaging, climatology, public health and other industries in which specialized mathematical models, computational methods, data analysis, and quantitative techniques are required.
Students who graduate with a B.S. in math and a concentration in applied mathematics will be prepared for entry-level careers in a variety of fields. The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) notes that the kinds of problems applied mathematicians help solve could include:

Graduate studies at UCSC in Applied Mathematics focus on developing skillsets in mathematical modeling, analysis and scientific computation applied to a broad range of science and engineering disciplines, including fluid mechanics, mathematical biology, dynamical systems, stochastic processes, control and optimization.
The graduate program currently offers a Ph.D. and an M.S. in Applied Mathematics. The Ph.D. program prepares the students with the foundational tools of applied mathematics, enabling them to perform independent research that transcends the disciplinary boundaries in sciences and engineerings. The M.S. program is designed to prepare the students for professional careers in applied domains requiring mathematical skillsets. The overarching goal of the graduate programs is to underscore the application of mathematics in solving real-life problems. Questions regarding the graduate program in the Department of Applied Mathematics can be directed to the Graduate Advisor.
Please note, this page refers to the Applied Mathematics M.S. and Ph.D. only. Students interested in the Scientific Computing & Applied Mathematics (SciCAM) M.S. should refer to the SciCAM page here.
I co-organize the Physics And Computation, Math And Numerics (PACMAN) group meeting, a weekly meeting for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty, interested broadly in applied mathematics. See our website for more information.
In 2006 I co-founded cSPLASH , a one-day festival of mathematical sciences for high school students, taught by undergraduates, graduate students, and professors from New York University and nearby. It is now held once a year in the spring. You can get involved by participating as a high-school student, teaching a class on math, science, or computer science, organizing it in advance or volunteering on the day of the event.

Applied mathematics explores the connections between mathematics and the physical world and uses mathematics in studying and solving real-world problems. In this interdisciplinary major, students learn the techniques of modeling, analysis, computing, simulation and data manipulation as applied to their area of interest, such as engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, or economics. Students can pursue a BS with a major in applied mathematics in two different ways, either at the university (Option A with a minor) or through the MBU - UVA cooperative program in Engineering (Option B).
A minor in a discipline of interest. (Common disciplines include Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Business, Economics, Sociology, Philosophy, and Art and Literature, although most disciplines are possible.)
