Computational Engineering B.Sc./M.Sc.

Computational Engineering – The bridge between disciplines. Study one of the most fascinating, versatile, and future-oriented subjects.

Technological developments are becoming increasingly challenging and increasingly reliant on complex mathematical principles. Engineers face the challenge of not only having a solid foundation in mathematics but also using powerful hardware, software, and advanced computer science methods.

Thanks to the comprehensive and well-rounded education, graduates of our program are exceptionally well-prepared for the demands of both research and industry. The combination of diverse areas of knowledge opens up a wide range of career opportunities in various high-tech sectors worldwide.

Technical developments are becoming increasingly complex and are based largely on mathematical principles. Engineers are thus dependent on efficient hardware and software and knowledge of the methods of computer science as a key competence. So they can successfully develop new products, compare technical solutions or predict the effects of design decisions. Computational Engineering (CE) was…Read more
