About the program
The aim of the program is to train a professional capable of jointly applying the knowledge and methodologies from modern (statistical and quantum) physics and engineering, especially in the information area, to the modelling and simulation of complex systems, i.e. systems consisting of many interacting degrees of freedom.
The MSc degree program has two possible tracks: an international one, fully taught in English, with a compulsory mobility program between Turin, Trieste (SISSA and ICTP) and Paris (the universities Sorbonne, Paris and Paris-Saclay), and a National programme, which takes place entirely on site and which is mainly delivered in English.
The MSc degree program trains Physics of complex systems engineer to fit the following professional profiles, that will be mostly required in R&D labs or Data processing centres:
- EXPERT IN THE SIMULATION OF NEW MATERIALS
- EXPERT IN INFERENCE AND OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS
- EXPERT IN MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS
- EXPERT IN MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF STOCHASTIC PROCESSES
The high level of technical and scientific knowledge allows for immediate working opportunities or the pursuit of further knowledge with a II level Master or a PhD program offered by Politecnico, for those who have a strong research activity vocation.
