Academics
The Mathematical and Computational Science department at Stanford offers
programs leading to a B.S. degree, an honors option, and a minor.
The requirements are listed below: any questions or petitions should be
addressed to the department administrator or department chair.
For the most up-to-date information on requirements for the major
and minor in Mathematical and Computational Science, please refer to the
Stanford Bulletin.
Typical Programs
The Mathematical and Computational Science program is inherently multi-disciplinary. The curriculum in MCS requires a
sequence of intermediate and advanced courses in the four disciplines,
enumerated below. Students construct a focus through elective
courses, as suggested below. Students will work with their advisor to build an appropriate capstone experience into their individual schedule-
perhaps through the honors program,
an advanced course from the graduate curriculum, a project thesis, or a specialized seminar.
