Math

Engineering mathematicians use theories and techniques, such as mathematical modeling and computational methods, to formulate and solve practical engineering problems in our world.

Examples: 

Engineering math professionals are involved in:

  • Analyzing the mathematical aspects of computer and communications networks
  • Studying the aerodynamics of aircraft
  • Devising mathematical computer models that allows us to see how water moves in a river
In your community: 

The skills of an engineering mathematician are very useful. They can be used to build models of how your community will grow, over the next seven generations. These models will help your band or tribal council make decisions about housing, education, medical and infrastructure needs, as well as to determine financial priorities.
