Overview

The PhD programme in Computational Engi-
neering is a joint initiative of the University of
Texas at Austin and the Instituto Superior
Técnico (IST) in Lisbon. This programme pro-
vides a new approach to the postgraduate
studies in multidisciplinary engineering and
computational sciences.

Objectives

The aim of this Doctoral programme is to de-
velop computational systems for the solution
of Engineering and Science problems. These
systems involve the mathematical analysis of
physical, chemical or biological process mod-
els, their computational implementation, and
the analysis of the numerical results.



Designed for

This multidisciplinary PhD programme is in-
tended for students wishing to develop their
knowledge in the field of computational engi-
neering with applications in solids, structures,
fluids, aerospace, biomedical, physics and ap-
plied mathematics. The candidate should have
a MSc degree or equivalent in the areas of En-
gineering, Mathematics or Applied Sciences.


Employment

Holders of a PhD degree in Computational Engi-
neering will be able to work in Companies, R&D
Institutions and Universities.
Lectures/Research
The lectures will be presented in two semesters
and include 6 mandatory and 4 optional
courses. All lectures will be in English.
The research, including the preparation of a
thesis, will last 6 semesters and will be carried
out at the IST and the University of Texas at
Austin.
