Computational Modelling and Simulation - Specialization

Computational Modelling and Simulation

Computational modelling and simulation is indispensable across science and engineering, providing essential tools to solve complex problems such as fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, and climate prediction. This study line offers a strong grounding in the mathematical prerequisites necessary to tackle both theoretical and practical challenges. Students will gain expertise in developing and applying computational methods to model physical phenomena, interpret results, and drive innovation across diverse scientific and engineering disciplines.
