The Computational Modeling and Simulation master´s program is a joint curriculum between the Faculty of Computer Science, the Faculty of Mathematics, and the Center for Molecular and Cellular Bioengineering (CMCB) with participation of the Faculty of Psychology, the Faculty of Medicine, the Faculty of Business and Economics, the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the Faculty of Environmental Sciences and the Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering.

The research-oriented interdisciplinary curriculum offers application-independent training in the algorithmic and mathematical foundations of computational modeling and simulation, followed by specialization in one of six application-specific tracks (see below), allowing students the flexibility to select courses based on their interests. The program combines topics of modeling (data science, inference, machine learning, artificial intelligence, knowledge models) and simulation (numerical methods, computer simulation, scientific software engineering, high-performance computing), in order to provide knowledge of lasting value and educate the innovators of tomorrow. We do not teach the use of specific existing software tools or commercial solutions.

The program also offers the possibility to fast-track into a structured PhD program supported by local key-partners in the relevant fields.

Scholarships are available for the tracks Computational Life Science and Applied Artificial Intelligence.
