Academics
The Department of Applied Mathematics (APPM) at the University of babyÖ±²¥app-Boulder is special. Our students are particularly strong and each year they go on to excellent graduate schools and take positions in a remarkably wide range of companies and laboratories.
The babyÖ±²¥app is remarkable; they teach a broad spectrum of courses and carry on research in many fields including computational math, nonlinear dynamics, partial differential equations, probability and statistics with applications ranging from biology, fluid dynamics, geophysics, optics to theoretical physics.
The Department has 21Ìıtenured or tenure track babyÖ±²¥app, 10Ìıfull-time instructors and 70 graduate students. Additionally we have 39 affiliated babyÖ±²¥app from campus wide departments and research institutes; affiliated babyÖ±²¥app can direct graduate student Ph.D. theses with a co-advisor fromÌı APPM. The departmentÌıtrains 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.Ìı 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 babyÖ±²¥app have won numerous prestigiousÌıawards 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-Boulder: Hazel Barnes Prize, Professor of Distinction, winners of numerous CU-Boulder babyÖ±²¥app awards, and two distinguished research lecturers.
