The capstone experience to the Applied Mathematics Undergraduate Program is concentrated in a mathematics modeling course, requiring prerequisite materials in computer programming, differential equations, linear algebra, and mathematical statistics, followed by senior project courses. In these project courses an industrial environment is simulated, attempting to give students the best possible environment for professional positions as applied mathematicians. This project is updating the existing laboratory resources with four high performance IBM-compatible PCs, 80486 based, and two SUN SPARCstation machines, including common industrial mathematics software. This enhancement to the computer laboratory is allowing the institution to incorporate intense, realistic computational assignments as part of the capstone experience in undergraduate applied mathematics.

应用数学本科课程的顶峰经验集中在数学建模课程，要求有计算机编程、微分方程式、线性代数和数理统计的必备材料，然后是高级项目课程。在这些项目课程中，模拟了工业环境，试图为学生提供作为应用数学家的专业职位的最佳环境。该项目正在更新现有的实验室资源，配备四台与ibm兼容的高性能个人计算机、基于80486的计算机和两台SUN SPARCStation机器，包括常用的工业数学软件。计算机实验室的这一改进使该机构能够将紧张、现实的计算作业作为本科生应用数学顶峰体验的一部分。
