Abstract
The Department of Applied Mathematics has a multifaceted mission to provide an exceptional mathematical
education focused on the unique needs of NPS students, to conduct relevant research, and to provide service to
the broader community. A strong and vibrant Department of Applied Mathematics is essential to the university's
goal of becoming a premiere research university. Because research in mathematics often impacts science and
engineering in surprising ways, the department encourages mathematical explorations in a broad range of areas
in applied mathematics with specific thrust areas that support the mission of the school.
Mathematics is the language of science and is fundamental to every quantitative science and technology
curriculum on campus. The Department of Applied Mathematics strives to provide a solid mathematical foundation
for all students as they make the transition into graduate curricula. We provide high-quality instruction in all
courses, giving emphasis to relevant and modern mathematical techniques in our advanced courses. And we
encourage students to develop and utilize skills in analysis, reasoning, creativity, and exposition as they acquire
knowledge of mathematics and its applications.
