OBJECTIVES
Students learn the fundamentals of subsurface computer-based modeling methods using mathematical and computer science concepts (geometry, topology, statistics, inverse methods).
They build their programing and software development skills to work in large-scale software teams. They develop programming skills for scientific computing using C++.
In complement to their base geoscience education, they also develop domain knowledge by working on case studies using examples of subsurface modeling in petroleum and mining.
These skills are complemented by a significant attention brought to an individial R&D project. These projects are generally proposed by the Research for Integrative Numerical Geology (RING) team (http://www.ring-team.org/), which benefits from strong interactions with industry.
