Computational Physics, BSc (Hons)

The Computational Physics degree program exemplifies the vital connection between physics and high-performance computing. As theoretical problems grow too complex for mathematics alone, computer simulations have become essential for understanding phenomena such as turbulence, nuclear reactors, and climate change, where computational physicists already lead and will expand to financial markets, genomics, and disease control.This program suits students interested in computing and simulation, covering programming, algorithms, and problem-solving methodologies. It provides a comprehensive education in physics and mathematics, equipping students to model natural systems, with hands-on experience using the university's advanced computing resources.
