Faculty of Mathematics and Computer ScienceScientific Computing – Master

Scientific Computing students work to develop applied mathematics methods and algorithms, implement these methods using modern computing technologies, and apply them to real-world problems.

Due to the combination of specialist knowledge and pronounced research orientation of the study program, students directly apply the newly learned methods to solve application questions. At the same time, they prepare themselves intensively for complex activities in industries such as the software, technology, and finance sectors or in research. The integrated collaboration in a research group and the connection to the graduate school HGS MathComp favor a direct transition to a doctorate.

Heidelberg University's participation in the 4EU+ European University Alliance enables exchange with international partners in a variety of ways, for example through a semester abroad or participation in international courses. These can beintegrated into the course of study, are funded by Erasmus+, and offer the  opportunity to obtain a double degree in cooperation with a partner university*.

The program is aimed at Bachelor graduates with a degree in computer science, mathematics, physics, or engineering with an advanced level of English.
