Description:

The basis of natural sciences is the modelling of phenomena and solving the resulting models. The Master’s Programme in Theoretical and Computational Methods will give you a strong basis in theoretical methods, modelling and simulations, and mathematical and numerical analysis for physics, mathematics, chemistry, computer science and life sciences. The special feature of this programme is that you can combine studies in the above disciplines into a comprehensive syllabus. It is well suited to the needs of both basic and applied research. However, this programme requires a genuine commitment from you to developing your own skills and to planning your studies. You can tailor your studies according to your current knowledge and interests, in cooperation with the programme’s professors.
