Info Event for Bachelor Students of the MNF
Join us for an info event on 7 May, 16:00-17:30h, in the Lecture Hall 1 of the Physics main building 321 (Zülpicher Str. 77, 50931).
You will learn everything you need to know about the Computational Sciences master program and the various Specialization Areas that are part of the curriculum:
- Computational Astro- and Space Physics
- Computational Biology
- Earth System Sciences
- Theoretical Chemistry
- Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics
The Master program in Computational Sciences directly incorporates research activities with computational methods in the natural sciences. Within this interdisciplinary, research-oriented Master program, students from different scientific backgrounds will obtain the skills required for modern, computational research methods in numerous scientific fields. Students will be trained equally well in simulation science, computer science and applied mathematics as well as their selected area of specialization.
The study program starts every winter term. Application opens beginning of June and the deadline is 15 July!
How to apply?
There will be opportunities for you to meet speakers, lecturers and current master students from Computational Sciences and ask your questions directly at the info event on 7 May.
For more information about the Computational Sciences master program, please contact info-compscie

We look forward to see you all at the event!
Literature Seminar Presentation Session
All Computational Sciences students are invited to attend the presentation sessions for the Literature Seminar that is part of the curriculum of the Computational Sciences master.
The next session will be on Tuesday 30 April, 15:30-16:30h, in the small seminar room 3.137 at the GeoMet Institute (Pohligstr. 3).
In this session, the following student presents:
Lorinda Marie Herbers Igarza
Topic: Annotation and analysis of 3D plant tissue micrographs
Specialisation Area: Computational Biology
Supervisors: Prof. Katarzyna Bozek, Prof. Miltos Tsiantis (Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research)
We encourage all Computational Sciences students to join the seminar session, even if you are not yet currently in the research phase of your master!
The Literature Seminar is the first step of the Research Part of your master studies (3rd and 4th semester). In a seminar talk, students present the current state of research in their topic from their Area of Specialisation. This is a great opportunity for you all to get to know the research topics of your peers and possibly find inspiration for your own research projects next year!
We look forward to an exciting talk and meeting you all at the session!

CompScie Students Social Meetup
Let's have an informal meetup together!
We will meet up on Tuesday, 16 April, starting at 12:30, in the big seminar room 3.136.
It's a great opportunity for you all to meet each other after the semester break and have a chat, without the pressure of lectures and exercises!
There will be biscuits, and you can get coffee/tea at the student union's kitchen closeby.
Looking forward to meeting you all!
Simulation and Modeling 2 - Introduction Session (Cohort 2 / 2nd Semester)
We invite all students from cohort 2 (who started in WS23/24) to join the first session of the Simulation and Modeling 2 course, on Monday 8 April, at 09:00-10:30h, in room 3.136 of the GeoMet Institute (Pohligstr. 3).
We will discuss important information and updates for the upcoming term, so please make sure you can attend this first lecture!
Start of the Summer Term 2024
The semester starts on 1 Apr. Lectures start from the 8th.
Please check starting dates and times for your courses on the KLIPS2.0 portal.
Course Registration Period for SS24
The first registration period for courses is open from 31 January until 13. February 2024.
Please register for all the courses you would like to take during the upcoming summer term in time.
If you haven't already, please contact your mentor to discuss module choices for your studies!
The second registration period opens 29 February and ends 21 March.
You can still register for courses if you have missed the first period, however, please be aware that all spots in your desired courses may already be taken.
