| Description | Combine theoretical mathematics with practical applications. Combinatorics is the study of discrete structures, while optimization explores ways to increase operational efficiency. You'll learn to apply these ideas to modern problems through courses in cryptography, quantum-information theory, graph theory, and semi-definite programming. | | |
