MA/MS in Computational Engineering Science

Technical problems are largely solved with computers, but this needs mathematical models of the underlying question. The master's course teaches this modelling alongside computing methods and applications, in an academic and research-based format. The standard period of study is 3 semesters, worth 90 ECTS credits, with teaching in German and English. Courses begin in the winter semester and summer semester. The programme is taught at RWTH Aachen University in Aachen and builds on an earlier degree. The module structure and examination rules are set out in the official examination regulations, which applicants should read before applying. Graduates can enter professional practice or continue toward research. Applicants need a first university degree that satisfies the requirements of the examination regulations, and the first semester is under open admission (zulassungsfrei).
