Numerical Analysis
Classical Mechanics
Fluid Mechanics and Electromagnetism
Electromagnetic Theory
Quantum Theory
Advanced Numerical Analysis
Partial Differential Equations
Tensor Field Theory
Financial Mathematics
Calculus of Variations and Hamiltonian Mechanics
Mathematical Modelling in Biology and Medicine
Linear and Dynamic Programming


PURE MATHEMATICS

Complex Variables
Linear Algebra
Elementary Number Theory
Analysis
Group Theory
Geometry
 
Well given that this is a forum about money, I expect we all say Financial Maths

I'd suggest you ask the question on one of the computer tech. forums.

Jim.
 
Computer science is pretty broad.
For software development for business, I would use these:
- Linear Algebra
- Financial Mathematics
- Numerical Analysis (Not 100% sure what this is)
- Linear and Dynamic Programming (Not sure what this is either, but it has 'programming' in the title.

It really depends on what you want to do. They all sound fun (well, apart from financial mathematics).
 
Thanks umop3p!sdn.

Yes, the Linear Algebra module appears to be quite a fundamental module.

- Numerical Analysis (Not 100% sure what this is)
- Linear and Dynamic Programming (Not sure what this is either, but it has 'programming' in the title.

Just to clarify the content of the Numerical Analysis and Linear Dynamic Programming modules, I've listed their descriptions below.
