Learning and experience
The English-taught curriculum connects simulation with data analysis. It includes scientific programming, finite elements, fluid dynamics, machine learning, project laboratories and a 15-credit thesis.
Who it may suit
Possible interests to develop include computational simulation, engineering optimisation and data-driven modelling. The project work can help you decide whether you prefer developing methods or applying them to an engineering problem.
Applying and costs
Engineering, mathematics and physical-science graduates are the stated direct-entry audience. Other qualifications are assessed individually, with up to 18 credits of bridging study where needed.
