Contemporary Knowledge Discovery

Specialize in applying computational and quantitative methods to identify and model the structures and systems shaping the world around us. Explore a wide range of applications, from understanding human intelligence and modeling physical data to predicting complex biological phenomena and controlling robotic systems. Computational scientists seek to identify emergent patterns, use those patterns to define structure, and analyze the results. Students choosing the CKD concentration will specialize in this process, applying computational and quantitative methods to discover structure in the world around us.

Core courses

In their second year, Computational Sciences majors enroll in core courses that provide the foundation for the Computational Sciences concentrations. They also take electives from core courses offered in other majors.

Concentration Courses

In their third year, Computational Sciences majors select a concentration, begin taking courses within it and begin work on their capstone courses. They also take electives chosen from other Minerva courses (other concentration courses in Computational Sciences, core and concentration courses in other colleges). Computational Sciences offers concentrations shown in the table below.

In the fourth year, Computational Sciences majors enroll in additional electives chosen from Minerva’s course offerings within or outside the major. Additionally, they take senior tutorials in the major, and finish their capstone courses.
