Advanced and Computational Mathematics

Mathematics is indispensable for an efficient treatment of complex real-world problems coming from engineering, computer science, economics, finance etc. To list a few but rather influential and striking examples, we refer to household automatic control systems, Google ranking, portfolio optimization, weather forecasting or big data analysis. In these and many other areas, state-of-the-art mathematical concepts are used to model, analyze and solve the given problem.

The aim of this four-semester Master's program is to train highly qualified graduates in mathematics who are capable of successfully dealing with challenges encountered in academic and practical working fields. Based on a Bachelor's degree in mathematics, the program deepens knowledge and skills in both theoretical and applied mathematics and prepares students for professional careers in business, industry or research.

Three main fields of specialization are offered, which are

A few mandatory German language classes (as well as optional clases in other langues) are part of the program. Upon completion of the Master's degree, particularly qualified students can enter the Ph.D. program of the Faculty of Mathematics.
