Computational materials and molecular physics

Education facts

Code: FYM320

The aim of the course is to outline modern computational methods and schemes providing challenges for the future and to develop practical experience in carrying out high performance computing. The course introduces numerical methods and new areas of physics that can be studied with these methods. It gives examples of how physics can be applied in a much broader context than usually discussed in the traditional physics undergraduate curriculum and it teaches structured programming in the context of doing science.

Entry requirements

Bachelors degree in physics or equivalent. Some knowledge of Computational physics and numerical methods is recommended. Applicants must prove their knowledge of English: English 6/English B from Swedish Upper Secondary School or the equivalent level of an internationally recognized test, for example TOEFL, IELTS.

Education offerings

Each offering has its own dates and conditions. Closed offerings are retained as history and do not mean that a new application is open.
