Materials Science and Simulation

["Students will obtain a comprehensive knowledge of materials science, physics and numerical methods. In particular, successful students will develop a profound knowledge and practical experience in applying advanced numerical and experimental methods on all the length and time scales that are relevant for materials. Thus, the Master's course of study will prepare excellent young scientists for successful careers in industry and academia. The curriculum was set up and will be continuously revised in coordination with the ICAMS partners, ensuring the maintenance of the programme's high standards in meeting the demands of current and future developments in research and industry.Throughout this course, students acquire a basic knowledge in advanced experimental and numerical methods in materials science and engineering. In fundamental and advanced option lectures, the students can widen their outlook and deepen their basic knowledge on current challenges in materials sciences. They also have the possibility to gain practical experience by participating in research projects. Thus, they will gain hands-on experience with state-of-the-art numerical and experimental methods and develop the competences and skills required for problem solving."]
