Profile

The Institute of Scientific Computing pursues in an interdisciplinary approach the development of mathematical models, numerical algorithms and simulation software to answer relevant issues from the natural and engineering sciences.

The institute therefore connects modern numerical methods with a modern hardware, which allows efficient simulations of complex models on high-performance computers.

Areas of application include materials science, biology, mechanics and design.

The institute participates in the excellence cluster "Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden", the graduate school DIGS-BB, the young researchers group CoSiMa, the Collaborative Research Centres Transregio 79 "Mathematical modelling and simulation of bone and implant remodelling in the healthy and diseased bone" and Transregio 96 "High resolution thermoelastic simulation on massive parallel computer architectures" and the International MaxPlanck Research School "Dynamical processes in atoms, molecules and solids".

We offer attractive lectures with a high practical relevance and a research-based working environment to our students of the master degree programmes Techno-Mathematics, Mathematics and Computational Science and Engineering.
