تطبيقات الحاسب في العلوم - Application of Computer in Science

Lectures will introduce a range of computer software important in modern physical sciences research and afford opportunities to develop technical skills in using these programmes and in computer programming. The classes and other activities will also explain issues relevant to reporting, citing and critical assessment of scientific results. Finally, the course will include topics to enhance employability: hands-on experience with specialised software for data processing and visualisation (two of MatLab, Excel, Mathematica, Discovery Studio Visualiser, electronic structure calculation); problem solving using a high-level programming language (one of Python, Fortran, MatLab, Mathematica ...); scientific literature searching and critical appraisal; writing and presentation skills; employability training, including one-to-one discussion with a Careers Adviser and assessing and presenting personal skills set and graduate attributes.
