Mestrado em Métodos Computacionais em Engenharia

Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) is an emerging interdisciplinary field that has been growing rapidly in the last decades. This program empowers you to gain insights into the physical world in a virtual way with essential knowledge, tools, and skills to cater to the industry of the future.

Along with industry digitalisation, increasing technologies and computerised tools are developed to establish virtual mirror images of physical entities so that they can be applied to investigate the behaviours of their physical counterparts under various working conditions through simulations. A physical entity could be a structure, a component, a product, a process or even a system. Its virtual mirror image is called a model or a digital twin as long as the bidirectional communication between them is enabled. As a result, a significant amount of time and cost are exempted from creating physical prototypes and conducting massive physical experiments. Accordingly, heavy demands on high-fidelity modelling and simulations emerge from the modern industry which is characterised by complex engineered and scientific systems.

Benefitting from the advancement of sensors, computational science and high-performance computing equipment, the modelling and simulation techniques are flourishing in terms of analytical, geometrical, multi-physics and data-driven manners. Combining with other techniques such as optimisation techniques and data analysis techniques, the physical entities of interest could be explored in a more comprehensive way than ever before. This programme will provide you with a solid foundation in multiple computational methods for the design, analysis, operation and maintenance of complex engineered and scientific systems.

We are a modern and welcoming university, with first-class education and internationally competitive research, a place where we strive for the greatest accomplishments.

Ever since its inception in 1977, we have aimed for excellence. Every decision, every achievement has emerged from a focus on creating excellent and well-known educations and research specializations that make a difference to reality.

Education

We are a modern and welcoming university, with first-class education and internationally competitive research, a place where we strive for the greatest accomplishments. The University of Skövde offers a wide range of postgraduate studies and International Master's programs taught in English as well as three Bachelor's programs.

Research for Change

The researchers at the University of Skövde want to contribute to making changes. That is why our research efforts are carried out in tight collaboration with our community. Furthermore, the research has a clear connection to the education at the university.

Our aim is that the university's research should make a difference locally, nationally as well as internationally. The share of the research that receives external funds is 66% (2019), and our principal contributors are KK-stiftelsen (The Knowledge Foundation), the EU, the Region Västra Götaland, and private companies.

The University of Skövde has five research fields. Three of these are Systems Biology, Informatics, and Virtual Engineering. These three form the foundation for INFINIT. The university's joint theme of Digitalization for Sustainable Development should always be integrated into all research projects and environments to the greatest extent possible.
