Overview
About the programme
Scientific Computing at Uppsala University includes Numerical Analysis, i.e., development and analysis of numerical methods for efficient computation of solutions to problems expressed as mathematical models. It also includes computational models and methods for data analysis.
In addition, Scientific Computing includes the study of algorithms and software techniques that are required for efficient implementation of computational methods on high-performance computing platforms. Focus is on development of methods, but there is a close interaction with applications.
The subject area of Scientific Computing is interdisciplinary with interfaces to Mathematics, Computer Science, and application areas, primarily within Science and Technology.
