5 Mathematics Masters Degree Programs in Czech Republic

The study program Probability, Mathematical Statistics, and Econometrics provides to the students advanced knowledge in several branches of mathematics focused on random events and their analysis (probability theory, mathematical statistics, econometrics, optimization). It is characterized by a deep insight into these branches and focuses on their mutual connections. An advanced level of basic knowledge in these branches is reached by attending mandatory courses. In elective courses, students deepen their knowledge in more narrow areas, chosen namely with respect to the topic of their master thesis. Thanks to the seminars the students may be in touch with current problems of mathematical research. Mathematical disciplines covered by this study program are well-established with narrow connections to other parts of mathematics. The theory is based mostly on mathematical analysis (measure theory) and linear algebra, many methods exploit numerical mathematics. On the other hand, these parts of mathematics are influenced and inspired also by problems from probability and statistics. Mathematical methods for random phenomena is one the most widely used parts of mathematics both in research and in practice. Aims of the program include preparation for a Ph.D. study of probability, statistics, or related areas at the Charles university or at another university. Students encounter applications of mathematical theories, theorems, and methods for solving concrete problems. Their future employment is very diverse in academia, industry, financial institutions, medical and biological research, or in humanities.

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.

The master level program "Mathematical structures" is aimed at broadening students' general mathematical background in algebra, geometry, combinatorics, and mathematical logic, and at acquiring a deeper knowledge in selected parts of these areas. The aim is to offer a fairly general overview of modern structural mathematics as well as lead the student towards independent creative work. The emphasis is on areas in which we have lecturers that are on top of their fields.

The study program Mathematical analysis provides to the students advanced knowledge in several branches of mathematics which are traditionally considered to belong to mathematical analysis (theory of real functions, complex analysis, functional analysis, theory of both ordinary and partial differential equations). It is characterized by a deep insight into these branches and focuses on their mutual connections. An advanced level of basic knowledge in these branches is reached by attending mandatory courses. In elective courses, students deepen their knowledge in more narrow areas, chosen namely with respect to the topic of their master thesis. Thanks to the seminars the students may be in touch with current problems of mathematical research.

Within the Mathematics study program, we aim at preparing you for the career of a scientist or an expert in many different spheres such as industry, banking or insurance services. Our basic goal is to provide you with the mathematical knowledge and deepen it. Also, our objective also is to develop your skills of independent logical thinking, abstracting and mathematizing real issues, solving the issues using mathematical methods and computer technology, and finally interpreting the results correctly. Having finished your studies, you will be ready to work independently as well as in a team and you will be capable of extending and completing your knowledge and skills.
