Computational Science (COSC)
The MS program in Computational Science consists of two 6000-level COSC courses described below in addition to courses offered by Mathematics, Science, and Engineering departments at Tulane. For a complete list of courses and requirements, see the Program Description page.
COSC 2020 Comput Concepts & Applic (4)
This course introduces students to the foundations of algorithm development and programming, basics of matrix algebra and numerical analysis, solving ordinary differential equations.
Corequisite(s): COSC 2021.
COSC 3000 C++ Prog For Sci & Engr (3)
This course begins with an introduction to C++ and will cover up to relatively sophisticated programming techniques including data structures, abstract data types, interfaces, and algorithms. The goal is for the student to get a taste of the design and implementation of large programs and to become proficient at programming in C++.
COSC 3100 Data Visualization (3)
COSC 3200 Large Scale Computation (3)
COSC 6000 C++ Prog For Sci & Engr (3)
This course begins with an introduction to C++ and will cover up to relatively sophisticated programming techniques including data structures, abstract data types, interfaces, and algorithms. The goal is for the student to get a taste of the design and im
COSC 6100 Data Visualization (3)
COSC 6200 Large Scale Computation (3)
COSC 6600 Comput Model Biomed Sys (4)
The objective of this graduate course is to provide students with the skills and knowledge necessary for computational modeling of biological and physiological systems. The first half of the course will cover introduction to UNIX, and elements of programming.
Corequisite(s): COSC 6601.
COSC 6700 Math Models Ecol & Evolution (3)
An introductory course in mathematical modeling in biology with emphasis on construction and interpretation of models in ecology. The goals of the course are to provide training in a wide variety of mathematical and computational techniques that are used
