Humans of BSOE
“I’m a Robotics Engineering major. It’s sort of a long story as to why I chose this route. Back in fourth or fifth grade, I wanted to be a famous inventor so that I could be remembered in the future. I was bullied in middle school, so I used that to rise above it. Robotics engineering gives me a sense of purpose. I hope to be a somebody, in other words.”
Applied Mathematics
Applied mathematics is a discipline devoted to the use of mathematical methods and reasoning to solve real-world problems of a scientific or decision-making nature in a wide variety of subjects, principally (but not exclusively) in engineering, medicine, the physical and biological sciences, and the social sciences. Applied mathematical modeling often involves the use of systems of (partial) differential equations to describe and predict the behavior of complex real-world systems that unfold dynamically in time.
Note: We are currently working on reshaping our departments. One of these changes has been to establish two distinct departments from the former Applied Mathematics and Statistics Department.
