Computational Modelling is all about formulating and modelling real-world problems, then developing solution methods to analyse these problems on a computer.
Powerful, cutting-edge software packages and programming languages are used to solve problems in a huge range of fields, including engineering, biological and bio-technical systems, and finance.
This major is available for the Bachelor of Applied Science (BAppSc).
