The Master of Science in Computational Mechanics is an international programme in the interdisciplinary field of numerical simulation with high-tech applications in engineering science and practice.

The use of computer-assisted strategies regarding the solution of practice-oriented problems has strongly increased during the last decades. Computational solutions have entered diverse areas such as building sciences, mechanical engineering, the automotive industry, medicine (bio-mechanics) and biology. The fundamental concept which enables this development is based on the interdisciplinary combination of the fields: Experiment - Modelling - Simulation.

The programme Computational Mechanics forms an interface between engineering fields by combining theoretical concepts, numeric treatments and experimental reality.
