About the Programme
The programme in Mathematics aims at training professional researchers in mathematical sciences and experts in mathematical education.
On successful completion of the programme students:
- will be prepared for Ph.D. qualifying tests in Algebra, Topology and Analysis,
- will have own research agenda and experience;
- will have teaching experience at university level.
The M.Sc. programme takes two full years of study. All M.Sc. students complete their Individual Plans of Study (IPS). The IPS includes some mandatory items. However, most courses are student chosen (students can choose from a certain number of special topics courses and a certain number of research seminars). A course project must be completed by the end of the first year. By the end of their course of study, students are required to submit a Master’s thesis. A presentation of thesis results, in the form of a seminar, is required. Every M.Sc. student has a faculty advisor, who supervises the course project and the Master’s thesis.
