Computational Science, Engineering and Medicine - Duke University

Computational Science, Engineering and Medicine from Duke University is a Campus Master Interdisciplinary Studies degree that prepares you for a Science career. Program Description The graduate certificate program in Computational Science, Engineering and Medicine facilitates interdisciplinary training in the use of modern computational techniques in the conduct of research. This broad charter encompasses algorithmic, numerical, and implementation issues. The program is designed for Ph.D. students who have been admitted to one of the participating departments, though applications from terminal M.S. students who are pursuing a thesis option will be considered. Students will be expected to take for credit three CSEM courses. These courses should be selected with an eye toward broadening the student's computational training beyond what is typical in the student's home discipline. Additionally, some component of the student's dissertation or thesis research is expected to involve significant computation, and at least one member of the CSEM primary or affiliated faculty should serve on the student's dissertation or thesis committee. Students desiring to enroll in the certificate program will be asked to complete a brief application form describing their research project, proposing a three-course sequence, and explaining how it would broaden their preparation for computationally oriented research. The CSEM faculty member(s) serving on a student's committee will assess the computational component of a dissertation or thesis at the proposal state and at the final exam.
