Academics
Study Applied Mathematics at CU ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ with expert faculty, leading research, and programs in computational math, statistics, nonlinear dynamics, and more.
The Department has 20Ìýtenured or tenure track faculty, 10Ìýfull-time instructors and 70 graduate students. Additionally we have 39 affiliated faculty from campus wide departments and research institutes; affiliated faculty can direct graduate student Ph.D. theses with a co-advisor fromÌý APPM. The departmentÌýtrains its students in the methods and strategies required to be able to solve real world problems. It never ceases to surprise us even as experts that mathematics is so useful.Ìý We believe that the question is not whether mathematics will be applied, it is only when and where.
The Department of Applied Mathematics is one of the leading departments of applied mathematics in the world. In fact in a recent National Research Ranking our Department was ranked amongst the top ten in many measures.
Our faculty have won numerous prestigiousÌýawards including: four being named fellows of the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics, two being named fellows of the American Mathematical Society, two being named fellows of the American Physical Society, two Guggenheim Fellows, American Statistical Association Fellow, Sloan Fellow. At CU: Distinguished Professor, and at CU-ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½: Hazel Barnes Prize, Professor of Distinction, winners of numerous CU-ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ faculty awards, and two distinguished research lecturers.
