California Baptist University
Innovation through mathematical problem solving is needed in every field imaginable. CBU’s M.S. in Applied Mathematics curriculum is designed to help students identify challenging real-world problems in virtually any field, formulate a mathematical model that effectively addresses the problems and use models to obtain real-world solutions.
Integrate a Christian worldview
CBU's M.S. in Applied Mathematics program integrates a faith-based perspective into
a foundation of mathematical theory and concepts. Students will learn to seek solutions
to world problems that are ingrained in a Christian-framed compassion for a world
in desperate need for Christ.
Research and present findings
Students will be able to communicate the results of their research and application
through reports and presentations. With these skills, graduates will be able to significantly
contribute to a competitive work force or pursue a PhD program in applied mathematics
or a related field.
This course is designed to teach students how to analyze, solve and apply partial differential equations.
In this course students will learn to apply techniques in numerical analysis.
The main purpose of this course is for students to participate in mathematical research and disseminate results through presentations at research talks and/or conferences.
As you make decisions about graduate school, keep in mind the full social, spiritual and educational experience awaiting you at CBU. Here, you will be supported by professors, staff and fellow students who will help you discover your strengths and challenge you to do more than you ever thought you could. Let us equip you with the education, training and opportunities you'll need to start making a unique difference doing what you love.

"The work was much more difficult than what I studied in my time as an undergraduate,
and the material stretched my mind and challenged me in ways I hadn’t been before.
I learned valuable lessons in hard work and persistence through my classes and through
my research endeavors."
Brittni Hall, 2017
"Every one of my professors have left indelible marks that I still carry with me in
my teaching and professional career. This program surprised me and I learned far more
than what I was initially expecting."
Benjamin Knisley, 2017
We see the beauty that math can create in the world of fractal geometry, we see the order and structure in which the universe was created with physics, and the awe-inspiring beauty of music through calculus. All of this is but a glimpse into the mind of God. That is why I love mathematics. It is man’s way of seeking to understand the nature of created things.
Forty-two years ago, God called me out of a comfortable job in research chemistry into a worldwide ministry in the mathematical sciences. God’s call drew me to travel, administrate and coordinate national and international teams of scientists and educators in academic institutions across the former Soviet Union, China, the Caribbean and even 40 miles north of Fairbanks, Alaska.
During my undergraduate education, I was given an opportunity by a discrete mathematics professor to be a contributing editor to a textbook he was writing. Getting a taste of the excitement of creating educational content convinced me to become a teacher and invest in the lives of students.
