Key Summary
Learn to solve engineering problems using computer technology
By studying the major, you will gain a deep understanding of applied mathematics and computer science, and pursue engineering and other mathematical disciplines whose methods are used to solve challenging problems in engineering practice. You will gain knowledge of modern information technology and learn to solve a variety of engineering problems using computing effectively. In your diploma thesis, you will independently solve an assigned technical problem of a mathematical nature or a general problem of applied mathematics With your MSc, you will find employment in leading positions in research teams or company management. Some of you may be interested in public administration, banking, insurance, or various areas of education. Or you may be so captivated by the field that you pursue a PhD in Applied Mathematics.
The follow-up master's study program Mathematical Engineering aims to equip graduates with knowledge of advanced mathematical disciplines with a focus on their applications in various fields, but especially in fields of a technical nature. The emphasis is placed on the use of modern computer technology in solving problems using effective methods of applied mathematics, so the program includes the necessary subjects in the field of informatics.
There is also English at an advanced level.
Students of the master's program will significantly deepen and expand the knowledge they have acquired by completing the bachelor's study program of the same name. They will also develop their ability to be creative and solve complex problems of a mathematical nature.
If they do not want to start their practice after graduation but prefer to continue their studies, they can join the doctoral study program in Applied Mathematics, which has had a long tradition at the Institute of Mathematics, FME.
Of course, they can also continue their doctoral studies at another BUT department or another university in the Czech Republic or abroad.

Graduates of the program will be equipped with quality knowledge of advanced mathematics focused on their use in solving various problems, especially problems of technical practice. They will have a good overview of methods based on mathematical and numerical analysis, including differential equations, algebra, discrete mathematics, linear and differential geometry, probability, and statistics, etc. They will also gain a thorough knowledge of modern computer science, so they become theoretically well-equipped experts who will be able to successfully solve various, especially engineering problems of a mathematical nature with the effective use of computer technology. They will have a good command of the English language and will be prepared for high-level development and innovation activities and research activities in various technical and other fields. They will gain the ability to create mathematical models of the studied processes and use their analysis to solve problems. They will be able to work independently with relevant professional literature and apply the acquired knowledge to solve specific problems. They will have no problem designing or assessing a creative project, engaging in teamwork, or presenting their results to the professional community.
The acquired education will provide graduates with easy employment in the labor market. Thanks to quality knowledge of applied mathematics and computer science, there will be great interest in them in a wide range of fields. They will find easy application, especially in management positions in development teams of various engineering professions (mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, electronics, aerospace industry, etc.) and software companies. The big advantage will be their good orientation in the most modern computer technologies and the ability of analytically. Their broad mathematical education will enable them to apply not only in industrial practice but also in many other areas, such as banking, government, business, etc. They will also be used in basic and especially applied research, they will also be well-prepared for subsequent doctoral studies.
Professional knowledge
The graduate will gain deep professional knowledge from the basic disciplines of mathematics especially applied mathematics. They will master key concepts, results, and procedures in key areas of mathematics, such as discrete mathematics and graph theory, mathematical logic, complex analysis, functional and numerical analysis, modern methods for solving differential equations, geometric algorithms and cryptography, mathematical methods of digital image processing, probability and statistics, variational calculation and optimization, financial mathematics, etc. They will gain quality knowledge of computer science and the use of computers to solve problems of a mathematical nature. They will be fluent in English at an advanced level.
Professional skills
The graduate will be able to apply the acquired knowledge to solve problems of a mathematical nature in various fields, especially in the field of engineering practice. They will have an overview of important connections between different branches of mathematics and will be able to apply these connections effectively. It will not be a problem for them to formulate and mathematically analyze more complex tasks in the field of natural, technical, and other sciences and also to present their knowledge to the professional community. They will be able to create mathematical models of studied phenomena and use them to solve given problems. To do this, they will be able to effectively use modern computer technology. They will be able to work with the professional literature, analyze the acquired knowledge, and use it in their creative activities.
General capabilities
The graduate will be able to independently and appropriately decide on the most important procedures for solving problems, will be able to manage the work team, coordinate their activities, and have responsibility for their work. They will be able to formulate the given problems in a comprehensible way and come up with an effective solution. Given all the language skills, there will be no problem in cooperating with counselors from abroad. They will be ready to continue to study in the form of participation in board meetings, seminars, and conferences, where they will be ready to present the results in a quality manner. Increasing all board capacity will also match the need for new practical challenges.
What Degree Program Types May Have Preceded
The study program narrowly refers to the bachelor's study program in mathematical engineering, which is also accredited (and studied) at the faculty of mechanical engineering. Graduates of the program can also continue their studies at the faculty of the accredited doctoral study program in applied mathematics.
The Mathematical Engineering study program offers graduates a wide range of employment options. In addition to the production sphere, the most important industrial branches include payments in experimental institutions, banking, education, the state sphere, etc. Their advantages are the knowledge of the methods of modern applied mathematics and computer science, as well as the ability to create mathematical models of the most serious problems, with the help of which these problems are effectively solved with the help of modern information technologies. In addition to the logical thinking obtained by the study of mathematics, the knowledge of graduates in the field of basic technical disciplines, which further increases the interest of the industrial companies in these graduates, is the additional value. Graduates of the Mathematical Engineering study program do not have any problems finding a place on the job market but have the opportunity to choose from many offers.
