Can you recommend me a source to self study computational materials science? I am currently doing an internship and want to study in my spare time for materials science. I will take a course named computational methods in materials science but I want to learn it earlier than that but I can't find any study materials for it. I know c programming and currently working on python.

Others can give you better advice on the best sources, but when I did a Google search on computational materials science the top hit was to a journal:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/computational-materials-science

Do you have access to that journal through your university or internship? :smile:
Yes I have. Thanks. Since I am still an undergrad, I don't have experience on reading journal but I will give it a try.

Why don't you contact the professor (or professors) who will be teaching it or who have taught it for references? If no professor is listed, ask the department secretary <ETA: for names of professors>.
