The MSc in High Performance and Scientific Computing is for you if you are a graduate in a scientific or engineering discipline and want to specialise in applications of High Performance computing in your chosen scientific area.
BSc in a scientific or engineering discipline with a grade of 2.2 or above is required. You must also be able to prove familiarity with a high level programming language such as Java, Python, C# etc., e.g. through the successful completion of a taught module that has been part of your curriculum or relevant industrial experience. You will be automatically matched to the route corresponding to your BSc. Where the qualification has no obvious matching route or you would like to follow a different route, an interview with the relevant subject programme directors will be required.
For EU/international students: IELTS 6.0 (with a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent English test.
