Applied Mathematics for the Life and Social Sciences, PhD

Arizona State University - Kaplan International

The Doctor of Philosophy program in applied mathematics for the life and social sciences focuses on the training needed for analyzing and more definitively answering questions about underlying patterns hidden within human health, behaviors and experiences, and for teaching others to do the same. Under the transdisciplinary instruction of national experts from five different schools at ASU, program participants learn new applications for tools such as agent-based models, evolutionary computing, geographical information systems, machine learning, multi-objective optimization, nonlinear dynamical systems and stochastic processes. In doing so, they unlock new revelations and categories for not just understanding the material, but also the need for scientists and professionals quantitatively trained in the life and social sciences. STEM-OPT for international students on F-1 visas. This program may be eligible for an Optional Practical Training extension for up to 24 months. This OPT work authorization period may help international students gain skills and experience in the U.S.
