Specialization Network Mathematics
Understand and shape the complex networks that that connect our world
Networks shape how people, information, energy, goods, and resources move through complex systems. In this specialization, you explore the mathematics behind connected systems including communication and transportation systems, supply chain logistics, energy grids, online platforms, and social networks.
In the Networks Mathematics specialization of master鈥檚 Industrial and Applied Mathematics, you learn mathematical concepts and algorithmic tools to analyze, predict, and control networks across multiple scales and sources of uncertainty and design systems that are efficient, reliable, and resilient.
Curriculum
