- Description/content
- The Computational Methods in Engineering (CoME) Master's programme deals with the fundamental concepts, techniques, and tools for modelling, simulation, and analysis of complex systems using computers.
The rapid development of computers and associated technologies has enabled the computation of previously unobservable empirical phenomena. For example, the simulation of global climate development and its impact on humans and nature.
Graduates of this Master's programme will work as a new type of engineer at the interface of various disciplines, such as mechanical engineering, process engineering, computer science, and mathematics. Graduates will be experts in numerical analysis and the simulation of technical problems and will be able to bridge the gap between different classical engineering disciplines and software development.
The CoME Master's degree programme is aimed at German and international Bachelor's degree graduates in all engineering fields and related areas of engineering, mathematics, and computer science. This programme will provide students with the opportunity to gain insights into different areas of engineering and even establish connections with industries outside of engineering. It can therefore be considered an interdisciplinary degree programme that bridges various engineering fields and is based on the commonality of computational methods.
CoME is designed to ensure that students are exposed to the wide range of application areas of simulation methods from various perspectives right from the beginning of their studies, starting from the first semester. Thus, the highly interconnected arrangement of modules from computer science, mathematics, and engineering departments is a unique feature. This allows students to gain insights into all areas right from the beginning and shape their preferences in their elective courses throughout the programme. However, it is important to emphasise that the fundamental goal of providing a strong theoretical education is not overlooked.
