It is intrinsically beautiful, can be appreciated for its logical patterns, and is
powerful when used in applications. It is the science of relationship structure and
provides tools for solving problems. Mathematics has historically had a profound impact
on societal development.
This "language of science" provides the framework for work in traditional areas of
science鈥攂iology, physics, chemistry and engineering. It is also important to areas
that require analytic modeling or data analysis techniques鈥攂usiness, economics and
the social sciences.

participating in research at Carnegie Mellon University.
Computer Science
Our department offers programs in Computer Science that apply mathematic concepts.
Computer science spans theory and practice.
It requires concrete and abstract thinking. From a practical perspective, consider
the intensive hands-on experience required to make computers do what you want them
to do. On a higher level, computer scientists must use precision, creativity, and
careful reasoning to model and analyze problems and design verifiable solutions.
Computer science has strong connections to other disciplines such as science, engineering,
health care and business, so computer scientists often become proficient in other
subjects.
