- Synopsis:
-
Workshop-type curriculum with strong learn-by-doing features. Part 1. Objectives: (1) To amplify the student knowledge of contemporary physics and computer science with emphasis on up-to-date topics. (2) To confirm the power of computer science tools and methods in solution of complex physics problems. (3) To take experience with the teamwork by solving concrete scientific problems in physics and its applications. Comment: Substantial part of the course is delivered in a computational laboratory, active participation and intensive individual work is required. Prerequisites: FNSPE courses Methods of Computational Physics 1 and Methods of Computational Physics 2 or equivalent, proven knowledge of physics and information science.
