Applicable Mathematics and Advanced Computation (AMAC) is a research program within the School of Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of Science at the Queensland University of Technology. The program focuses on the development of mathematical models of complex systems arising from industry, medicine and biology. What drives our modelling is the need to understand and interpret real data obtained from industry, the field and the laboratory. The research is characterised by the use of high level mathematical analysis and advanced computational techniques together with the use of high-performance computing, data visualization and virtual reality. The program has strong links within QUT and with external associates. It aims to produce successful higher degree students and to attract outstanding postdoctoral researchers and visitors. Members of the program have been successful applicants for external funding.
