Need help finding master's program (Europe) with modeling aspects

[Foirfe]

Hello, I am a student from Ireland in the final year of a BSc in physics and am looking around for a master's to apply for. I would really like a master's degree that has a strong focus/track on modeling and simulation.
I was unsure whether it would be better to apply to a more theoretical based physics master's or a more applied based course. Some of the master's programs that I have looked at so far include applied physics at TU Delft and theoretical physics at Utrecht University, but I am unsure yet where I should go. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any guidance from professors in your current university?

Most professors I asked told me that there are a lot of good universities in Germany and the Netherlands but I didn't get any clear answer on strong modeling courses which is why I decided to try here

Both Delft and Utrecht have very good physics programs. Modelling is a pretty broad concept. I studied turbulence modelling. You might be interested in quantum computing.
I did my PhD at the applied physics group in Delft and I really liked the university and the city. They currently have a very strong group doing research on quantum computing, if that is your interest. The different tracks that you can follow are mentioned here:

Utrecht has something similar:

They might have limited availability though, so maybe check out if you can simply enroll or if you have to jump through hoops and are then randomly selected from the best hoop-jumpers.
