Summary
Advances in fields such as Robotics, Physics, Engineering, Earth Sciences or Finance are increasingly driven by experts in computational techniques. Notably, people skilled to write code for the most powerful computers in the world and skilled to process the biggest data sets in the world can truly make a difference.
The MSc in Scientific Computing and Data Analysis offers an application-focused course to deliver these skills with three interwoven strands:
-
Computer Science underpinnings of scientific computing (algorithms, data structures, implementation techniques, and computer tool usage)
-
Mathematical aspects of data analysis
-
Implementation and application of fundamental techniques in a domain specialisation (presently astrophysics, particle physics, financial mathematics, robotics or earth and environmental sciences).
MISCADA’s Computer Vision and Robotics specialisation aims to equip students with the background needed to address some of the biggest research questions in robotics and its associated sensing algorithms, such as how we can develop future autonomous mobility solutions in a safe and reliable manner. The courses include computer vision, machine learning, robotic motion and planning in addition to reinforcement learning.
