Mathematik
Master of Science; tuition language: German
Description
The research-oriented M.Sc. Mathematik is offered in three fields of study: Mathematics; Interdiciplinary Mathematics; Business Mathematics. They differ in the possibilities for specialisation within the overall programme.
The following areas of research are taught: Algebra; Analysis; Geometry and Approximation; Logic; Numerical Analysis; Optimisation; Stochastics.
Study Regulations with Semester Course and Examination Schedule
Field of Study Mathematics
Two of the seven areas of research are studied as a major. Choosing a minor from the broad range of fields of study available at the Technical University of Darmstadt is mandatory. Within the Studium Generale, courses from other programmes or language courses can be included into the degree programme, as well. Mathematics, minor and Studium Generale will be studied at a 60:15:10 ratio.
Field of Study Interdisciplinary Mathematics
Only one instead of two mathematical majors is studied, together with additional courses in mathematics. A choice of non-mathematical courses, a minor and the area “Mathematics in a broader context” provide this field's of study interdisciplinary character. Mathematics, major, minor and Studium Generale will be studied at a 40:25:10:10 ratio. Minor and major can be the same.
Field of Study Business Mathematics
Only one instead of two mathematical majors is studied, together with additional courses in mathematics. A special emphasis is placed on the two business-relevant areas of Optimisation and Stochastics. In the Non-mathematical courses and in the minor, Economics and Business Information Systems, respectively, are obligatory. “Mathematics in a broader context” and Studium Generale give this programme an interdisciplinary character as well.
