    Programs What path to follow for scientific computing?

    I am 26 years old and currently working on my B.Sci. in Computer Science. I am also interested in astronomy and physics as well, and my dream job would be something where I can combine those interests and work alongside scientists and researchers. I love science and as long as I make a...

    Gaps in my mathematical foundations

    Honestly it sounds like you're already ahead of the curve a bit. I tend to be self-conscious about forgetting techniques and such, but I think it's best to learn what you need as you need it. I'm a huge fan of Just-In-Time learning, and it sounds like you already have a solid foundation to be...

    Engineering Software Engineering and Astronomy/Physics

    I am 26 years old and I recently went back to school to study computer science - I hope to graduate by 2019 with a BSci. I'm currently interning as a software engineer as well. I was curious what opportunities there are for software developers to work around physicists, astronomers, etc. My...

    Exploring the Intersection of Computer Science and Physics: A Personal Journey

    Hi all! I am Technik. I'm 26 years old and recently went back to school to pursue a Computer Science degree. I am also really interested in physics; cosmology/astronomy in particular. I am currently working with a physics professor on a web application that will serve as an educational aid in...

    Which maths should I start with?

    Thanks for the suggestions. It's good to hear I can learn the math as it's required while going through physics. I'm not really looking to study as a mathematician or any of that. Also, I'm mostly interested in classical mechanics and relativity. What would be the best learning resource for...

    Which maths should I start with?

    Hello all, I've been reading a lot about cosmology lately. Mostly higher level abstractions about how things work without really wanting to get dragged or pulled down by some of the maths. My eyes kind of glaze over an equation when I see one on a wikipedia article. But that got me to...
