There are excellent computer facilities, and the department has its own comprehensive research library with more than 27,000 volumes and 290 current journals. The Masters Program in Applied Mathematics is intended to train students to use sophisticated mathematical techniques in their professional activities. The program usually takes one year, sometimes two. It is very flexible, in that each student designs an interdisciplinary course of study with the help of an advisor who is in the student's department of interest. There is a thesis option, but a thesis is not required.
Some support is available in the form of tuition scholarships and teaching assistantships.
