• Basic courses (compulsory, first and part of second semester): to provide a solid basis in the field of quantum chemistry, statistical thermodynamics, molecular modeling techniques and scientific computing
• Advanced courses (compulsory and elective, part of second and third semester): to specialise in particle-based modeling in the field of chemistry, physics, or biology

Research training

The research training consists of:

• two minor research projects (first and second semester)
• a literature study (third semester)
• a major research project (final semester): conducted within one of the institutions participating in the programme, or at one of their European academic or industrial partners
