| Certificate Programs
The Computational Science program at
San Diego State University offers a Advanced
Certificate degree.
The Advanced Certificate in Professional
Computational Science is designed to provide
for private and public industry professionals
as well as graduate students who wish
to learn professional and technical computational
skills in their fields. Skills include:
use of tools available for scientific
applications development (particularly
those targeted for parallel and distributed
computer systems), scientific visualization,
database query, simulation and modeling
packages, computational templates such
as Matlab and Maple, and the choice of
appropriate hardware resources for different
classes of problems.
The certificate will certify that a student
has received training in computational
techniques applicable to his or her primary
field of study. This will include: tools
available for scientific application development
(particularly those targeted at parallel
and distributed systems) scientific visualization
and database query applications, simulation
and modeling packages, computational "templates"
such as MatLab and Maple, and the choice
of appropriate hardware resources for
different classes of computational problems.
The advanced certificate degree requires
12 units to include COMP 526,
601, 626, and 670.
