The Applied Mathematics Department leadership has chosen to limit some senior-undergraduate course offerings for the 2020-21 academic year. Neither AM 3911F/G nor AM 4617A/B will be delivered. Fortunately, courses that have not been offered recently -- such as  AM 3615A/B and AM 4817A/B -- will be offered. 

Students who had been interested in AM 3911F/G may wish to take PHYS 3962F (the Dept of Physics & Astronomy is willing to consider requests for special permission for those lacking any prerequisites).

Students who had been interested in AM 4617A/B may wish to consider AM 4264B which addresses computational problems in neuroscience.
