The research-oriented Master’s degree program in Mathematics aims to provide students with sound skills, scholarly flexibility and creativity as well as a readiness to work together with others. Furthermore, it offers students a high degree of flexibility in selecting the mathematical content of the degree program, their academic specialization and their non-mathematical minor subject. Students can begin their studies either in the winter semester or the summer semester. This Master’s degree program can also be completed as a part-time program.
