Overview
Present technologies of multi scale supercomputing in a broad range of problems require specialists with original and creative mindset reinforced by scientific theoretical tools of material science. Such people are able to develop models, perform computations, analyse data and come up with ideas of improvement based on efficiency as dictated by rationale of physical science. They can easily adapt to ever changing scope of problems create and implement projects by employing supercomputing facilities and global outreach. This is achieved by learning latest “unfinished” subjects of theoretical physics and practicing scientific research interfaced with supercomputing. This program prepares such specialists.
