We summarize the Computational Engineering and Science program at the University of Utah. Program requirements as well as related research areas are outlined. To obtain the MS degree in CES, a student must complete courses and present original research in scientific computing, scientific visualization, mathematical modeling, and the case studies in CES. The outlined research areas include scientific visualization, computational combustion, computational physics, computational chemistry, mathematical and computational biology, and computational medicine. 1 Computational Engineering and Science Program The grand computational challenges in engineering and science require for their resolution a new scientific approach. As one report points out, “The use of modern computers in scientific and engineering research and development over the last three decades has led to the inescapable conclusion that a third branch of scientific methodology has been created. It is now widely acknowled...
