Computational Science

Doctoral graduates in computational science see the computer as essentially a research instrument, a tool to gain new knowledge through computation. They apply the tool to empirical data or mathematical models targeting problems from a wide variety of scientific domains. Computational science has close connections with applied mathematics, and, in comparison to computer science, there is a greater emphasis on algorithms that model continuous quantities rather than discrete data structures. 

From this specialisation option you will graduate as Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).
