Mechanical Engineering - Mastertrack Computational Engineering

Key Features

The Mechanical Engineering - Mastertrack Computational Engineering offered by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) embodies an emerging and interdisciplinary field that empowers engineers to utilize computers and data to solve complex engineering problems, optimize designs and simulate real-world systems. By creating digital twins of real systems, computational engineers can efficiently address industrial, societal, and environmental challenges, by performing analyses that may be too expensive or difficult to study with experimentation.

The Computational Engineering Master’s track is about acquiring broad knowledge and skills to understand and apply computational methods, artificial intelligence, and mathematical models in mechanical engineering. Such knowledge empowers you to become a computational engineer with the skills to creatively address complex engineering challenges through simulations and data analysis. Your interdisciplinary profile will enable you to work in diverse teams, a key quality that is sought after within the industrial and research communities.

Moreover, mastering programming, algorithm development, and data manipulation not only empowers you in the field of engineering but also opens doors to diverse industries where computational skills are in high demand.

Courses include:

• Advanced Engineering Mathematics
• Scientific Computing for Mechanical Engineering
• Engineering Optimization

• Advanced Discretization Techniques
• Your second year comprises your internship and graduation project where you can put the expertise you gained during your first year to good use. During your internship (15 ECTS) you will apply the knowledge in a project in the sector or at a research institute where you gain an impression of your professional future. After your internship, you work on your graduation project (45 ECTS) which revolves around academic research.
