Course Description
The Earth Science and Engineering (ErSE) program focuses on applications of modern computational methods to study geophysical problems associated with the atmosphere and/or ocean circulation, earthquakes, oil exploration, reservoir modelling, and subsurface phenomena. Students in this program receive broad training in numerical methods, mathematics modeling, and geophysics. The program is divided into two tracks that focus on computational analysis of Fluid Earth Systems. ErSE students much specify one of the two tracks as their major. Students in the Fluid Earth Systems track study flow and transport processes both beneath and above the earth's surface, including subsurface, surface amd atmospheric flows. Students in the Solid Earth Systems track focus on seismology, geophysics, geodynamics and geomechanics.
