About- In an age in which all forms of knowledge and experience can find their way to the computer, “computation,” whether it be the actual manipulation of digital encodings or framing for discussion, is central to many of the investigations and innovations that range across the humanities, arts, and sciences. In this way, computation becomes a nexus for much of epistemology and thus, a cause of and opportunity for collaboration. The mission of the Neukom Institute for Computational Science at Dartmouth College is to support this broad view of computational investigation across campus and to catalyze creative thought throughout the Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Medicine, and Business, for undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty.
