Overview
An Interdisciplinary Curriculum
Programs of study and research leading to both the Master of Science degree and the Doctor of Philosophy degree are offered on the Starkville Campus and through Distance Education.
There is an increased demand by industry, academia, and government for scientists and engineers with a foundation to create tools for computational analysis and design, and with a strong domain knowledge for application of these tools to complex engineering problems. Such programs come with curricula covering a large range of subjects, so that they can produce scientists and engineers with broad backgrounds and viewpoints. These scientists and engineers can then be expected to understand the basic approaches to solving analytical problems and also using mathematical and computational tools required to arrive at solutions.
The Computational Engineering program at the Mississippi State University is open to students with undergraduate degrees in engineering, computer science, mathematics, or a physical science. Research assistantships are available through research projects in the HPC2.
