  1. CSE09 SIAM Conference on Computational Science and Engineering Miami, Florida, March 2009 CSE/CE Programs in Germany Michael Schäfer Institute of Numerical Methods in Mechanical Engineering Graduate School of Computational Engineering Technische Universität Darmstadt www.fnb.tu-darmstadt.de, www.gsc.ce.tu-darmstadt.de Thanks to Oskar von Stryk March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 1

  2. Introduction Beyond dispute: need for CSE/CE education! What is the “best” way? March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 2

  3. CSE/CE Study Programs • Possibilities: • Minor subject within an existing study program • (e.g., Mathematics, Computer Science, Mechanical/Civil/Electrical Engineering) • Postgraduate MSc program • Consecutive BSc + MSc program • PhD study program March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 3

  4. CSE/CE Programs in Germany •  16 Programs in CSE/CE/CMe in Germany: • Postgraduate MSc programs: • U Bochum, TU Braunschweig, U Duisburg, TU München (2), U Rostock, U Stuttgart • Consecutive BSc + MSc programs: • RWTH Aachen, TU Darmstadt, U Erlangen-Nürnberg, U Hannover • PhD programs: • RWTH Aachen, TU Darmstadt, U Erlangen-Nürnberg, U Hannover, TU München • Further related programs: • Computational Science (U Bremen), Computational Physics (e.g. U Dortmund), Computational Biology,… Programs developed mostly independently! What is similar / different? March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 4

  5. More General MSc Programs March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 5

  6. More General MSc Programs Mandatory courses only! March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 6

  7. More Specialized MSc Programs March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 7

  8. More Specialized MSc Programs March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 8

  9. Consecutive BSc + MSc Programs March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 9

  10. Consecutive BSc + MSc Program at TU Darmstadt Civil Engineering Mechanical Engineering Electrical Engineering Computer Science Flow Combustion Computational Robotics MSc Modeling + Theory Applied Mathematics Applied Computer Science Civil Engineering Computer Science Electrical Engineering Mechanical Engineering Applied Math Mechanics Mathematics: Mathematics for Engineers I,II,III; Elementary PDEs; Numerical Algorithms; Statistics Computer Science: Basics of Computer Science I,II,III; Basics of CAE/CAD Geometric Methods for CAE/CAD; Engineering: Technical Mechanics I,II,III; Materials Science Interdisciplinary: Intro to Scientific-Technical Programming; Project; Basics of Modeling and Simulation BSc March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 10

  11. Consecutive BSc + MSc Programs • Variations in overall # of semesters: BSc 6-7, MSc 2-4 • Focus on engineering side of CSE (and not on Computational (Natural) Sciences) • Similar layout in mandatory courses in BSc (more as in MSc): • Fundamentals of (Applied) Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering • Tailored courses to CE/CSE needs and characteristics • Practical course / project course & seminar • Several areas of application in 5th and 6th semester • 3 programs with dedicated interdepartmental research (and study) units • All programs linked with specific PhD programs March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 11

  12. PhD Programs – Graduate Schools Heidelberg Graduate School ofMathematical and Computational Methods for the Sciences U Heidelberg Aachen Institute for Advanced Study in Computational Engineering Science RWTH Aachen Graduate School of Computational Engineering TU Darmstadt Center for Simulation Technology in Engineering International Graduate School of Science and Engineering TU München Graduate School for Computing in Medicine and Life Sciences U Lübeck March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 12

  13. CE Education at TU Darmstadt ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8th year PhD CE Graduate School CE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5th year Master CE ------------------------ 4th year ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd year Study Center CE Bachelor CE March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 13

  14. Recruiting March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 14

  15. Working Group on CSE/CE Programs • Joint appearance • Marketing CSE/CE • More visibility • Sharing best practices • Mutual recognition of courses and degrees • Academic issues • RWTH Aachen, TU Braunschweig, TU Darmstadt, U Erlangen-Nürnberg, TU München, U Rostock, ETH Zürich www.ce.tu-darmstadt.de/study/ag March 09 | TU Darmstadt | FNB | M. Schäfer | 15

  16. Conclusions • Many activities in CE/CSE education in Germany • Different approaches (general, specialized, consecutive,…) • Composition of courses from other programs • Few new courses • Room for improvement • Working group • Strong impact by German excellence initiative for PhD education Thanks for your attention !
