CCSE专注于开发新的计算方法及其在科学和工程中重要问题的创新应用。
该中心的使命是在高度跨学科的环境中将计算学院的研究与工程，科学，建筑与规划和管理学院的计算研究联系起来，从而支持计算科学和工程的研究和教育。
计算工程
计算工程在经济竞争力、国家安全、环境管理和公共安全方面发挥着越来越重要的作用。
事实上，计算工程是所有工程努力的核心——从适当的数学模型的发展到机械、电气、化学和生物现象的预测，再到复杂的自然和工程系统的设计。计算工程现在已经达到了这样一个阶段：进一步的进步——作为一种普及的使能技术充分发挥潜力——需要发展新的跨学科教育和研究模型。
的计算工程重点是为工程问题构建计算工具：开发更高效、更健壮、更有能力的新计算工具；现有计算工具的明智应用——与建模、实验和“分析”方法相结合——来解决特定的工程问题和问题。在这里，计算工具被定义为包含数值方法的基本公式（用数学术语描述）和数值方法的软件体现（用特定的编程语言实现的代码，可能针对特定的体系结构）。
CCSE focuses on the development of new computational methods and their innovative applications to important problems in science and engineering.
The mission of the Center is to support research and education in computational science and engineering by linking research in the School of Computing with computational research in the School of Engineering, science, Architecture and Planning and Management in a highly interdisciplinary environment.
Computational Engineering
Computing engineering plays an increasingly important role in economic competitiveness, national security, environmental management and public safety.
In fact, computational engineering is central to all engineering efforts-from the development of appropriate mathematical models to the prediction of mechanical, electrical, chemical, and biological phenomena to the design of complex natural and engineered systems. Computational engineering has now reached a point where further advancements -reaching their full potential as a pervasive enabling technology -require the development of new models of interdisciplinary education and research.
Our computational engineering focus is on building computational tools for engineering problems: developing new computational tools that are more efficient, robust, and capable; Intelligent application of existing computational tools -combined with modeling, experimentation, and "analytical" methods -to address specific engineering problems and problems. A computational tool is defined here as containing both the basic formula of a numerical method (described in mathematical terms) and the software embodiment of a numerical method (code implemented in a particular programming language, possibly for a particular architecture).
