Program History

• Founded in the fall of 1995 by John Rice and
  Elias Houstis as an interdisciplinary graduate
  specialization program.
• CSE was opened to graduate students admitted to
  a home department but interested in performing
  research with a computational science and
  engineering specialization.
• CSE is offered at both the MS and Ph.D. level
  Computational Engineering for students in home
  departments of the schools of engineering and
  Computational Science for students in home
  departments of the other schools.

5
CSE Funding

• The Source of funding for CSE administration is
  from Purdue University.
• In 2001, the Academic Reinvestment Program of
  Purdue awarded a recurring grant of 50,000 per
  year to the proposal titled Computational
  Science and Engineering Educational Program
  submitted by the CSE program.

6
Administration

• CSE Program Director
• Tom Downar (NE), Since Spring 2002
• Elias N. Houstis (CS), 1995 to fall 2001
• CSE Program Coordinator
• Jyoti Mathur (CS)
• CSE Graduate Committee
• One CSE faculty member, called the CSE
  representative, from each active home department
  is member of the graduate committee.

7

Curriculum

• Course load 1/3 course load from computing
  2/3 course load from masters or doctoral degrees
  in home departments.
• For students with home department as CS or ECE,
  the 1/3 course load should be from outside
  department application area.
• The courses in computing are chosen from the list
  of Core courses and the list of Relevant Courses.
  These lists prepared by the CSE graduate
  committee.
• CSE students attend and give talks in the weekly
  CSE Seminar Series
• Upon successful completion of CSE program, the
  CSE is listed as a specialization on the
  students transcript

CSE 501Introduction to Computational Science

• This is the introductory course of the
  Computational Science and Engineering Program.
• The objective of this course is to familiarize
  students from various disciplines in the science
  of problem solving.
• This includes basic computational tools (Matlab,
  Mathematica, PSEs), computational kernels of
  important problems, and core techniques for
  solving the problems.
• It emphasizes computer simulations as an an
  important design tool, the role of high
  performance computing in large scale simulations,
  and the "Grand Challenge problems.
