Why study Computational Science and Physics?
Would you like to model how sub-nuclear particles interact? Or simulate the earliest moments of the universe? What if you could contribute to the fields of nanotechnology, quantum technology and biophotonics?
Computational Science is an interdisciplinary field which uses skills from mathematics and information technology to tackle real-world scientific problems which can only be solved through computation.
Physics asks the big questions which have always intrigued humankind and uses computation, data analysis, simulations and models to find the answers.
In this dual major, you will learn to construct realistic mathematical models and simulations, perform quantitative analysis of scientific problems using computers, and develop skills to solve real challenges in physics.
