The Master's in Computational Geoscience examines techniques for modeling Earth's natural systems and environmental processes. You'll gain practical data science and modeling expertise to tackle real-world geoscience problems and enhance decision-making capabilities. The curriculum focuses on sought-after industry competencies like programming, predictive analytics, and large-scale data interpretation.
As one of the UK's rare programs specializing in geoscientific computational modeling and Scotland's sole offering, this course caters to science/engineering graduates seeking to apply data science in geosciences without prior earth science training. Developed with industry input, this hands-on program prepares graduates to fulfill global workforce needs. Instruction comes from leading researchers in geomorphology, geomagnetism, geophysics, tectonic studies, and earth system modeling. You'll acquire problem-solving skills using multiple programming languages, with emphasis on Python applications.
