Rice University Computational Applied Mathematics and Operations Research

CMOR Senior Design Projects - Three teams made presentations of their design projects on April 22, 2026.

In CMOR 492 (Fall) and CMOR 493 (Spring) students engage in team-oriented year-long design projects that utilize modeling, analysis and scientific computing skills to solve problems motivated by an application in engineering, physical, biological or social sciences.

Today is the day! Will you be part of the 24-Hour Challenge to help us continue developing mathematical solutions to large-scale problems in cancer detection, convection modeling and more?

Your contribution to the CMOR Department Excellence Fund, no matter the size, directly supports our students and the department’s most pressing needs.

Make your gift before 11:59 pm CT to join the challenge.
