The Computer Science and Applied Mathematics program aims to develop such graduates. The program is similar to the Mathematics and Computing programs operating in many leading Institutions. The program has a small set of core courses in both Computer Science and Mathematics, and many electives which can be taken from both the disciplines. This enables the students to build a program most suitable for them.

The increasing use of sophisticated mathematical tools and techniques in tandem with computational tools in several areas such as computational finance, biology, e¬commerce, weather forecasting, and data science motivates the need for a program that will produce graduates with computational skills as well as the ability to use sophisticated mathematical concepts and tools in order to tackle these problems.
