Course List 2011/2012

All courses in the list below are relevant for Computational Science. They are divided into three categories: Scientific Computing Methods, Other Methods and Applications.

Explanation

• Normally, a student should select courses corresponding to 15 hp (higher education credit points) in each period.
• Courses in boldface are core courses. To be eligible for the concluding Degree Project Course, a student has to take a majority of the core courses in the master program.
• By combining courses carefully, a student can design an individual study plan with a specific profile towards a certain area of Computational Science. Three such possible profiles are indicated in the course list by the labels BF=Computational Physics, BK=Computational Chemistry and MS=Modelling and Simulation.
• In addition to the eligible courses listed below, there are also 1TD322 Advanced Course on Topics in Scientific Computing, 5 hp, and 1TD326 Advanced Topics in Scientific Computing II, 10 hp, that allow for individualised specialisation.
