The Neukom Institute for Computational Science was created to become a catalyst for interdisciplinary collaboration at Dartmouth using computational science to aid the myriad research projects on campus. In its simplest form, Computational Science is the creation and application of algorithms that are then used to solve complex problems throughout the spectrum of the arts and sciences. Nearly every discipline across the campus can benefit from computational technology – our goal is to integrate computational advances into these disciplines, to support the development of new technologies that will change the way we all think and work, and to try to imagine what is probably an unimaginable future.
