The Applied Mechanics department was founded nearly five decades ago to focus on research and education in the areas of solid mechanics and dynamics. Current research is mainly in the area of dynamics, dealing with topics such as vibrations of structures and machinery, structural response to earthquakes, including system identification and control of structural response, and fundamental studies of the behavior of nonlinear dynamical systems.
The option in control and dynamical systems (CDS) is open to students with an undergraduate degree in engineering, mathematics, or science. The qualifications of each applicant will be considered individually, and, after being enrolled, the student will arrange his or her program in consultation with a member of the faculty. In some cases the student may be required to make up undergraduate deficiencies in engineering science courses.
Ph.D. in Industrial Applied Mathematics, offered jointly by the College of Engineering at California State University, Long Beach and The Claremont Graduate University, allows students to pursue doctoral programs in most areas of engineering and applied mathematics.
The College of Engineering at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) has the primary responsibility for the engineering portion of the program, and the Department of Mathematics...
Financial derivatives are continuing to play increasingly important roles in modern finance, not only with regard to the management of global investment and corporate risk, but also as a means for designing better personal investment and estate planning portfolios. Necessarily, this makes the design of such products more difficult, placing in higher demand experts trained in the advanced mathematics and investment techniques of modern finance.
A new interdisciplinary and interdepartmental Ph.D. program; biological phenomena are viewed through the lens of the basic principles of physics and engineering. Questions of interest fall into three general categories:
Mechanics and Dynamics
Patterns and Collective Phenomena
Transport, Signaling, and Communication
The mission of the Engineering Systems Division (ESD) is to pursue the study of complex technological systems and products considered in their broader environmental, financial, legal, organizational, and political context. MIT established the division in 1999 with the charter to develop academic programs that educate future leaders in engineering systems; to serve as a model to broaden engineering education generally; and to expand the scope and practice...
