Programme in detail
The Applied Mathematics programme is divided in four semesters. At the end of the first, second and sometimes third semester, students carry out exams. In the first year you will spend most of the time on courses, both core and orientation courses, as well as specialisation courses.
The specialisation courses enable a deep specialisation for the optimal execution of your thesis project and are the main focus in the second semester. The elective space may be used for courses to broaden your skills, for courses at bachelor’s level required to obtain the necessary prior knowledge for a course at master’s level, or for an internship.
Because of the freedom in choosing your courses, don’t forget to submit an Individual Exam Programme in order for the master coordinator to approve your selection.
