Présentation
he MASTER'S in PHYSICS OF COMPLEX SYSTEMS (PCS) is a research-oriented fundamental physics program. Students receive the Master's degree in Physics from the University of Paris Cité "Complex Systems." The program focuses on the study of complex systems through statistical physics, equilibrium and non-equilibrium physics, field theory, stochastic processes, dynamical systems, nonlinear physics, and numerical simulation. The subjects of study are complex networks, graphs, inference, big data, machine learning, active matter, the physics/social science interface, econophysics, soft matter, biological systems, complexity in quantum physics, etc.
This academic program is part of Université Paris Cité's Graduate School of Innovative Materials, connecting master's and doctoral courses with cutting-edge research laboratories. This interdisciplinary graduate school, bringing together physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine, offers students the opportunity to explore the creation of innovative materials to address emerging socioeconomic challenges.
Objectifs
To train future doctoral students in university and CNRS physics laboratories, as well as executives in companies and startups, focusing on big data, social and financial models, etc.
Compétences visées
Obtaining in-depth conceptual knowledge in statistical physics, nonlinear physics, dynamic systems, and interfaces with biological or human sciences, enabling students to address various theoretical or experimental problems in physics or interfaces between physics and other sciences.
Programme
All courses are taught in English. The first semester (S3) coincides with the third semester of the international Master's program in "Physics of Complex Systems" (i-PCS). It takes place in Paris, on the Grands Moulins campus and at Jussieu. It consists of a core curriculum and a selection of electives. The second semester (S4) consists of elective courses and an internship.
