Program description
Mathematical Engineering
The Master’s degree captures the evolution of professional engineers proposing an advanced study program that combines both solid fundamental knowledge of physical processes and deep theoretical and technological competences. It provides students with a multidisciplinary high-level education lying between engineering and applied mathematics, giving them advanced skills in the field of mathematical modelling of physical or financial processes together with advanced computational engineering expertise.
The courses has two specializations. They are
- Mathematical Engineering - Study track 'Mathematical Modelling for Engineering and Science
- Mathematical Engineering - Study track 'Financial Engineering
Admission requirements
Bachelor diploma (or equivalent)
