About

This is a two-year (120 ECTS) full-time master’s programme that prepares students to use advanced computational methods, high-performance computing and mathematical modelling to tackle complex problems in science and engineering, including the mechanics specialisation. mhjensen.github.io+2computationalscienceuio.github.io+2 Students choose “Mechanics” as one of the study directions, meaning they will work on topics such as computational mechanics, numerical simulation of mechanical systems, multiscale modelling and related applications. mhjensen.github.io+1 The language of instruction is English. computationalscienceuio.github.io Key admission requirements include a bachelor’s degree (typically in science or engineering) with sufficient quantitative background (mathematics + programming) and typically a minimum grade/average equivalent to the Norwegian “C” grade. mhjensen.github.io+1 Regarding application timing: for international applicants the programme starts in August and the application deadline is around 1 March for EEA/EU and earlier (e.g., 15 November of the previous year) for non-EEA/EEA outside countries. Mastersportal+1 Tuition/fees: For students from outside the EU/EEA, tuition fees may apply (one source lists approx NOK 286,000 per year in some master’s programmes at UiO).

Living costs in Oslo are also relatively high, so budgeting for accommodation, food, transport is wise.
