Overview
Students on this Computational Sciences course at Freie Universität Berlin are trained to use precise mathematical and computer-based methods and to develop software to solve current scientific problems.
Key Features
- The courses are predominantly offered in English.
- Lecturers belong to the fields of chemistry, physics, geosciences, mathematics and computer science involved in the course.
Programme Structure
The four-semester master’s program combines theoretical and application-oriented content and is divided into the following four components:
- Synchronization area: Learning the basic methods of the "Computational Sciences" and developing an interdisciplinary profile in courses from an area that was not previously worked on in the respective Bachelor's degree
- "Scientific Computing" area: focus on numerics, statistics or computer science
- Area of specialization: Focus on one of the three scientific areas: Molecular Sciences or Geosciences or Atmospheric Sciences
- Master's thesis: Working on a research project from the chosen specialization area
