Foil 11 Computational Science and Syracuse Degrees

From Computational Science and Internetics Chautauqua Albuquerque New Mexico -- 9 August 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Essentially nobody is interested in the available (computational science) named certificates and Masters degrees
Unfortunately students outside computer science are mainly interested in a masters in computer science as this is known to be a "Ticket to a Green Card".
  • Students enroll in Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and take the CS Masters "on the side". They then leave .....
Many students do attend the courses and the Computer Science PhD students like the Computational Science PhD written qualifying exam ( you must take and pass 3 exams in areas such as algorithms, AI, operating systems/architecture, logic )
Computational Science is an allowed exam area and students chose one of the two tracks
