Dear colleagues -
I would be very grateful if you could bring the new MSc programme below, which has as its subject the application of machine learning and other techniques to the modelling of complex systems, to the attention of any suitable candidates.
Many thanks in advance,

MSc in Complex Systems Modelling
Modern societies rely on a wide range of infrastructures, institutions and technologies whose complexity has grown dramatically in the recent past. Consequently there is an ever-growing demand for expertise in complex systems modelling as a prerequisite to understanding, maintaining and further developing such systems.
The MSc in Complex Systems Modelling is a taught programme with a significant research component in the rapidly developing and exciting interdisciplinary field of Complex Systems. It covers scientific areas ranging from Biomedical and Natural to Economic and Social Sciences, and consists of 8 taught modules plus a three-month research project.
The following modules are compulsory:
Theory of Complex Networks
Research Methods and Advanced Topics in Complex Systems
Students then choose in addition from a list of optional modules, currently:
Equilibrium Analysis of Complex Systems
Dynamical Analysis of Complex Systems
Mathematical Biology
Elements of Statistical Learning
Applied Probability & Stochastics
Distribution Theory
Portfolio Risk Management
Algorithms Design and Analysis
Algorithms for Computational Molecular Biology
Statistics for Bioinformatics
Bio- and Nanomaterials in the Virtual Lab
Each MSc candidate must also complete, after passing the written examinations, a project in a relevant area of Complex Systems Modelling at the postgraduate level
The MSc is based at the Department of Mathematics on King's Strand campus, which provides dedicated study space for MSc students. King's College London is one of the top 25 universities in the world (THE 2009) and the fourth oldest in England. It has an outstanding reputation for providing world-class teaching and cutting-edge research. A multi-faculty institution, King's was rated excellent for student educational experience by the Quality Assurance Agency.
