About MCSS

Hello students and welcome! UTM Mathematical and Computational Sciences Society (MCSS) is the official academic society for the Mathematics and Computational Sciences Department. The purpose of the club is to officially represent the students, promote and achieve the common interests of the students, encourage academic, social, and career related support for the students, maintain open lines of communication between the students and the department's faculty and staff, as well as maintain communication between the students themselves, and encourage faculty and student interaction outside of the formal lecture, tutorial, and lab settings
