Description

  • Computational Physics theory and methods related to topics by choice: nuclear physics, particle physics, condensed matter physics, continuum physics
  • parallel and distributed multi-core calculations and programming
  • data mining and machine learning methods
  • quantum computing: method development and algorithms

Learning outcomes

Physics specialisation concentrates to build solid, advanced level theoretical, experimental, methodological and/or computational knowledge and skills on different sub-fields in Physics, by choice: nuclear physics, particle physics, condensed matter physics or continuum physics. Together with the high-performance computing core studies and optional advanced level studies the specialisation will give excellent skills for applying Computational Physics methods in high-performance computing environments, developing Computational Physics methods for high-performance multi-core systems and understanding the role and the possibilities of cutting-edge technologies and methods like quantum computing and artificial intelligence in Computational Physics.
