Course Overview

Advances in fields such as Physics, Engineering, Earth Sciences, or Finance are increasingly driven by experts in computational techniques. Notably, people skilled to write code for the most powerful computers in the world and skilled to process the biggest data sets in the world can truly make a difference. The MSc in Scientific Computing and Data Analysis offers an application-focused course to deliver these skills with three interwoven strands: Computer Science underpinnings of scientific computing (algorithms, data structures, implementation techniques, and computer tool usage); Mathematical aspects of data analysis; Implementation and application of fundamental techniques in a domain specialization (presently astrophysics, particle physics, or financial mathematics).

General Eligibility

The UK first or upper second class honours degree (BSc) or equivalent In Physics or a subject with basic physics courses OR In Computer Science OR In Mathematics OR In Earth Sciences OR In Engineering OR In any natural sciences with a strong quantitative element.
