Applied mathematics

Mathematical sciences

The mathematical sciences are a group of areas of study that includes, in addition to mathematics, those academic disciplines that are primarily mathematical in nature but may not be universally considered subfields of mathematics proper. Statistics, for example, is mathematical in its methods but grew out of bureaucratic and scientific observations, which merged with inverse probability and then grew through applications in some areas of physics, biometrics, and the social sciences to become its own separate, though closely allied, field. Theoretical astronomy, theoretical physics, theoretical and applied mechanics, continuum mechanics, mathematical chemistry, actuarial science, computer and computational science, data science, quantitative biology, operations research, control theory, econometrics, geophysics and mathematical geosciences are likewise other fields often considered part of the mathematical sciences. Some institutions offer degrees in mathematical sciences (e.g. the United States Military Academy, Stanford University, and University of Khartoum) or applied mathematical sciences (for example, the University of Rhode Island).

Using Algebra and Geometry in the Real World

You hear terms like “algebra” and “geometry” and these theories we memorized in high school start to dance a jig in our heads – a jig many of us weren’t overly interested in! But the past decade has seen an explosion of applications of algebra, geometry, and topology to the real world, lik

The Scientific Method and the question of "Infinite Sets" | Sociology and Pure Maths| N J Wildberger

Let's get some kind of serious discussion going about the differences in methodology and philosophy between the sciences and mathematics, and how these differences manifest themselves in the attitude towards the logical foundations of mathematics. In particular we look at a bulwark notio
