Theoretical and Computation Sciences
Discovering computing solutions to complex problems through innovation
The theoretical and computation sciences cover a broad field that focuses on applied computational research. These computational approaches influence all research fields in the College of Science as well as foundational mathematical sciences. These fields link to efforts across the university, including Mason's Institute for Digital InnovAtion that aims to influence the future of our digital society.
Theoretical and Computation Sciences Spotlight: COVES Fellow builds transparent AI system to identify potential career pathways
Mathematical Sciences PhD student and COVES Fellow Jeanie Schreiber developed a transparent AI recommendation system during her COVES Fellowship with Virginia’s SCHEV. Using explainable natural language processing and occupational data, the tool matches users’ interests and skills with pathways while emphasizing AI-driven decision-making.
