CAMCOS

CAMCOS (Center for Applied Mathematics, Computation, and Statistics) is a student research program in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at SJSU. Our goal is to give SJSU students the experience of working on a real-world problem in the applied mathematical sciences. We therefore look for local businesses and government agencies to sponsor student teams that will investigate problems arising from their work.
