Academic Admission
Typical Candidates' Profiles A typical CMS student is interested in mechanics of materials and structures, in programming, and in simulation methods, and is curious to know how things work. A distinctive feature of this student is that she/he would like to know how computer simulations and data analysis can be used to predict the behaviour of specimens, devices, or maybe even of the yet non-existent "virtual materials" with superior properties. Candidates who have a background in applied computer science, applied mathematics and similar subjects strive to achieve domain knowledge in linking software development and methods of deep learning with materials science in order to broaden their professional profiles. Minimum Conditions for Admission to CMS: Bachelor's degree or an equivalent degree in the field of Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computational Engineering, Applied Maths, Applied Computer Science, Materials Science, (Solid State) Physics, Nanotechnology, or other comparable studies Grade Point Average (GPA) of at least 75% This is equivalent to a German grade of 2.0. Or 3.0 points of 4.0 maximum points in the United States grading system English certificate (see below) Programming skills are an advantage.
