Applied Mathematics

There are several opportunities available to you if you are considering studying abroad as part of your master’s degree in Applied Mathematics, and we are here to help you find the perfect destination.

For the master’s programme in Applied Mathematics, we recommend going abroad during the 2nd semester of your studies.

If you wish to combine a master’s degree in Applied Mathematics with professional experience, you can choose a company project as a subject-perspective activity in the 3rd semester of the programme.

A company project is a well-defined project that you carry out in collaboration with a company or organisation, where you become part of the daily operations of the workplace on an equal footing with the regular employees. Here, you work on specific, practice-oriented tasks and apply your academic skills in a professional context.

You can organise the company project in several ways:

• as a 10 or 15 ECTS project, in combination with other subject-perspective activities
• or as a 30 ECTS project, constituting an entire semester.

In the 4th semester of the master’s programme in Applied Mathematics, you will work on your thesis, which counts as 30 ECTS credits.

The thesis is the final part of the master’s programme, where you independently demonstrate your ability to identify, analyse, and critically address academic issues on a scientific basis within a topic of your own choosing.
