Changing Curriculum in Computer Science and Physics: Computational Science and Physics

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at International Symposium on Computational Sciences - John R. Rice 65th Birthday Purdue University on May 21-22 99. Foils prepared June 5 99

We will discuss a broad definition of computational science to be the interdisciplinary area between computer science and all application areas.
We suggest traditionally that simulation has been focus of computational science but that today there is more student interest in information based applications and that these benefit from an interdisciplinary approach similar to simulation areas.
We discuss implications for physics education and
Use of distance education to teach such new curricula
