Ph.D. in Scientific Computing

This program is intended for University of Michigan Ph.D. students who will make extensive use of large-scale computation, computational methods, or algorithms for advanced computer architectures in their doctoral studies. A firm knowledge of the scientific discipline is essential.

This is not a stand-alone degree; it is a joint degree program . Students must be accepted into the Ph.D. program of a home department at the University of Michigan. The actual degree name will have “…and Scientific Computing” appended to the the normal title, e.g., “Ph.D. Degree in Aerospace Engineering and Scientific Computing.”

Students in the Scientific Computing degree program come from many different disciplines. Our current enrollment exemplifies the breadth of departments, schools, and colleges represented by our Ph.D. students.

Students may enroll in the program after having completed one term in their home Ph.D. department. We recommend applying prior to being promoted to candidacy status, but can often accommodate students later in their degree progress.

Please contact MICDE at [email protected] if you have any questions about the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing.

Students must complete the normal doctoral requirements of their home departments, as well as additional requirements in scientific computing. The specific requirements are:

Non-exhaustive examples of course selections for various departments can be seen on our  Example Course Choices page.

Group I Courses

Twenty-four (24) credit hours of coursework toward your home degree. You must complete your home degree requirements in order to receive the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing. It cannot be earned on its own. Group I may overlap with groups II or III. 

Group II Courses

Nine (9) credit hours of approved courses in scientific computing methodologies.

Group III Courses

Nine (9) credit hours of approved courses in computational science and applications in scientific computing outside the home department  (this typically includes courses in computer science, parallel algorithms, advanced computer architectures, computational fluid dynamics, or other courses in scientific computation not offered by a student’s home department).

Committee Composition

An emphasis on scientific computing reflected in doctoral thesis and doctoral committee composition. At least one faculty member on your committee should be an expert in scientific computing, affiliated with MICDE  or  MIDAS .

Demonstration of Understanding

Preliminary/Qualifying Exam Question: You must answer at least one question related to scientific computing during your department’s preliminary or qualifying examination.  If you join the program after having completed your qual/prelim, you can still use this option if you were asked a question related to computational methods or applications during your qual/prelim.  The student’s advisor or a MICDE  or  MIDAS -affiliated member of the committee must then email MICDE to confirm that this requirement is complete.

If the format of your PhD program’s preliminary/qualifying examination cannot accommodate this requirement, or if you are beyond this stage at the point of joining the program and were not asked a question on your prelim/qual, you have the following option to complete the Demonstration of Understanding requirement:

Literature Review: A 3-5 page critical assessment of previous research that has been done in your research area, specifically the scientific computing/computational aspect of your research problem.  This must be submitted to [email protected]  for review 2-4 semesters before your dissertation defense.

If you have any questions about fulfilling the Demonstration of Understanding requirement, please email [email protected] .

For Faculty:

Please send an email to [email protected] describing the scientific computing-related question that was asked during the examination and acknowledging that the student answered the question satisfactorily.

Applied mathematics.

Scientists and engineers rely more than ever on computer modeling and simulation to guide their experimental and design work. The infrastructure that supports this activity depends critically on the development of new numerical algorithms that are reliable, efficient, and scalable. "Large N" is the hallmark of modern, data-intensive scientific computing and it is a common thread that unifies departmental research in numerical linear algebra, optimization, and partial differential equations.

David Bindel works on numerical linear algebra, numerical methods for data science, and simulating microelectromechanical systems and fusion plasmas. His research involves software design, mathematical analysis and physical modeling.

Anil Damle  works on the development of fast algorithms in applied and computational mathematics that exploit structure coming from underlying physical or statistical models. This includes work in the areas of computational quantum chemistry, numerical linear algebra, and spectral clustering.

Giulia Guidi  works in the field of high-performance computing for large-scale computational sciences (in particular, computational biology). Her research involves the development of algorithms and software infrastructures on parallel machines to accelerate data processing without sacrificing programming productivity and to make high-performance computing more accessible.

The scientific computing group is also active in the Applied Mathematics Ph.D. program, which is part of Cornell's Center for Applied Mathematics . Prospective Ph.D. applicants interested in the mathematical aspects of scientific computing may wish to consider that graduate field as well.

Ph.D. in Computational Science

Print

Many of the important problems facing society today can only be solved by teams of individuals from a variety of disciplines. An individual trained in an interdisciplinary environment is an essential member of such a team because he/she can successfully interact with team members and gain an overall understanding of the problem.

However, most doctoral programs in this country have a very narrow focus and consequently, students rarely have the opportunity to understand research themes in other disciplines or even to explore the relevance of their own research to other fields. Since the Department of Scientific Computing (DSC) lies at the intersection of applied mathematics, applied science, computer science and engineering, it has the unique opportunity to train students in areas which cut across disciplines.

Ph.D Program Tracks

The goal of the Ph.D. program in Computational Science is to train graduate students to have extensive knowledge in computational science and to allow the student to acquire expertise in one or more areas of the sciences, mathematics, or engineering. Students may choose to follow the major track in computational science which allows them to specialize in aspects of:

computational mathematics computer science

relevant to computational science or choose to complete one of the following specialized tracks:

Coursework & credits

Since computational science is an interdisciplinary program, students' programs of study can be quite varied. Consequently, we have built in a lot of flexibility into the course requirements for the Ph.D. in Computational Science. The commonality in the coursework is that each student must take the same four computational science courses (Group A courses), which cut across disciplines, as well as a minimum of 9 credit hours in other computational science courses (Group B courses) plus 9 additional credit hours selected from existing departmental courses in computer science, engineering, mathematics or an applied science (Group C courses). Each student must also take six seminar hours (details are listed in the Graduate Handbook, section 5.2.2 ).

There are a total of 29 credit hours of coursework that are specified plus a minimum of 24 credits of dissertation hours. Additional credit hours may be obtained through dissertation hours, other computational science courses, or existing courses offered by departments. We do not impose any additional credit hours over the University's residence requirement of twenty-four graduate semester hours credit after completion of the master's degree or after thirty semester hours of graduate work. A specialization is obtained by completing a minimum of 9 credit hours from courses in the discipline approved by the student's supervisory committee. More information on the courses below can be found in our list of courses .

The required core courses (Group A) consist of:

  • Introduction to Scientific Programming (3 credits)
  • Applied Computational Science I (4 credits)
  • Applied Computational Science II (4 credits)
  • Parallel Programming, Algorithms and Architectures (3 credits)

The elective core courses (Group B) consist of courses such as:

  • Monte Carlo/Markov Chain Simulations
  • Survey of Numerical PDEs
  • Computational Space Physics
  • Programming Skills for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
  • Computational Evolutionary Biology
  • Introduction to Bioinformatics
  • Computational Finite Element Methods
  • Numerical Methods for Stochastic Differential Equations
  • Numerical Methods for Earth and Environmental Sciences
  • Molecular Dynamics
  • Numerical Linear Algebra
  • Data mining
  • Visualization
  • Verification and Validation in Computational Science

Note: Student should select a minimum of three courses from Group B, which are approved by his/her supervisory committee.

Application and Information

Students applying to this program should have earned a bachelor's or master's degree in an applied science, mathematics, computer science or engineering and possess a keen interest in computational science. The DSC expect that graduates of this program will be prepared to seek employment in academic, industrial, or laboratory settings.

Scientific Computing: Overview

Scientific computing is an indispensable part of almost all scientific investigation and technological development at universities, government laboratories, and within the private sector. Typically a scientific computing team consists of several people trained in some branch of mathematics, science, statistics, or engineering. What is often lacking is expertise in modern computing tools such as visualization, modern programming paradigms, and high performance computing. The master's program in scientific computing aims to satisfy these needs, without omitting basic training in numerical analysis and computer science. Many graduates of this program work at technologically advanced institutions, especially in research and development, where their skills and experience complement those without interdisciplinary degrees. The program is also open to students who will go on to pursue doctoral studies in computer science, mathematics, or statistics.

The master's program in scientific computing focuses on the mathematics and computer science related to advanced computer modeling and simulation. The program is similar in structure to terminal master's programs in engineering, combining classroom training with practical experience. The coursework ranges from foundational mathematics and fundamental algorithms to such practical topics as data visualization and software tools. Electives encourage the exploration of specific application areas such as mathematical and statistical finance, applications of machine learning, fluid mechanics, finite element methods, and biomedical modeling. The program culminates in a master's project, which serves to integrate the classroom material.

Admission Requirements

The program requires least three semesters of Calculus (including  multivariate calculus ), as well as linear algebra . Experience with  programming in a high-level language  (e.g., Java, C, C++, Fortran, Python) as well as  data structures  and algorithms , equivalent to a first-year sequence in computer science,  is also required. It is highly desirable that applicants have undergraduate major or significant experience in mathematics, a quantitative science or engineering, or economics.

Applicants are strongly recommended to submit their applications by February 15 for Fall semester enrollment. The final application deadline for Fall semester enrollment is May 1. The program admits students both on a full-time and on a part-time basis. The application process takes place online via the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences; please visit the  Graduate School Admissions site .
