MSc Grid Computing - track Computational Science
The track Computational Science takes two academic years (120 EC), which awards a Master of Science degree in Grid Computing. Students can start in semester 1 (September) or semester 2 (February). Computational Science focuses on systems for quantitative modelling and simulation of complex dynamic systems. These are found in, e.g., physics, chemistry, biology, medicine and engineering.
Key words: modeling and simulation, scientific computing, cellular automata, mesoscopic modelling, parallel algorithms, scientific visualisation and virtual reality.
The track Computational Science consists of the following elements:
Note that this list of disciplinary courses is dynamic and can change in time. You can also propose disciplinary courses yourself from yet other fields.
Mapping the old track (2009-2010) to the new track (2010 – 2011) As compared to the previous 2009-2010 track, the new curriculum for Computational Science for 2010-2011 contains no changes.
You can also take a variant in BioInformatics. The structuring of the curriculum is comparable to Computational Science, and there is substantial overlap. However, the obligatory courses in BioInformatics are:
Then there is a free choice of 24 EC.
