Computational Engineering (Minor)

The Computational Engineering Minor (MCOM) is designed to highlight the significance of computational tools in all fields of engineering and expose you to programming fundamentals, numerical methods, computer usage skills, and knowledge of applications from various areas.

This minor provides a strong foundation for applying computational methods to a variety of engineering problems, such as fluid mechanics, structural analysis, elasticity, and optimization. You will gain a fundamental understanding of the problems being addressed and the numerical methods used to obtain solutions, becoming well-equipped to interpret results accurately and identify the limitations of the methods employed.
