The programme includes four study tracks: mathematics, applied mathematics, statistics and social statistics. The study tracks have specializations:

Mathematics:

• analysis
• geometry
• algebra and topology
• mathematical logic and mathematical physics

Applied mathematics:

• applied analysis
• mathematical modelling
• mathematics of imaging
• stochastics
• insurance and financial mathematics
• probabilistic modelling

Statistics:

• statistics

Social statistics:

• social statistics

Master's degree in mathematics or applied mathematics 120 cr

Mandatory advanced studies in mathematics and applied mathematics 85-120 cr:

Core courses at least 10 cr

• Specializations define one or more mandatory core courses from the list of courses.

Specialization course packages

• Specializations define at least 10 cr obligatory courses from their course packages, in addition to at least 10 cr core courses.
• Other advanced courses - as agreed in PSP/HOPS - from specialization course packages.
• More core courses and/or specialization courses from other specialization course packages.
• Advanced courses from other programmes.
• The content of specialization studies will be agreed in personal study plans.

Master's thesis 30 cr

Master's thesis seminar 5 cr

Other studies

• Courses and/or modules from other programmes. The courses and/or modules can be bachelor level ones.
• Bachelor's level courses in mathematics as agreed in personal study plan. Requirements of these courses depend on the content of BCs-degree studies.
