The brain, the immune system and the formation of clouds, are all examples of complex adaptive systems comprising of many interacting components, often non-linear and dynamic, leading to multiple levels of collective structures and organization.

Inspired by complex adaptive systems in nature, several new methods for information processing have emerged: artificial neural networks resemble neurobiology; genetic algorithms and genetic programming are based on evolutionary processes in nature; the construction of artificial life, the design of autonomous robots and software agents are based on the behaviour of living systems.

Complex adaptive systems master's programme at Chalmers ​To understand the dynamics of increasingly complex phenomena where standard simulation methods are inadequate, stochastic algorithms, game theory, adaptive programming, self-similarity, chaos theory and statistical methods are used to describe and increase our understanding of complex systems in nature and society, in the end trying to predict the unpredictable. Examples are gene-regulation networks, the motion of dust particles in turbulent air or the dynamics of financial markets.

More programs from the university

Chalmers University of Technology offers 39 Master’s Programmes taught in English for in the areas of Engineering, Architecture and Technology Management. Over a third of the students enrolled on our Master’s Programmes are international students. Fee-paying students have numerous scholarship opportunities.

The composition and content of Chalmers’ Masters programmes is strongly linked to the needs of the industry. Prominent multinational companies are regularly consulted and included in the process of developing and improving the Master’s Programmes so as to ensure that students are job-ready upon graduation. It is consequently no surprise that Chalmers ranks high in the QS category Employer Reputation.

Chalmers’ Careers Service helps students find a job in today’s competitive market. In addition to seminars and workshops, students have access to career and job search advice. The Chalmers Careers Service works with many employers, consultants, alumni and other universities in order to help students find job opportunities.

All International Masters students have the option of taking Swedish language course for all Master’s students. The cost of the course is included in the tuition fee. 

Application period for Master's programmes starts in Mid October - Mid January every year.
