Composition of the Study Programme
Duration of studies
4 semestes - 120 credit points (cp)
Programme structure
In the degree programme, at least 96 credit points must be acquired in mathematics modules (including thesis module) and a minor subject of at least 18 credit points must be studied in accordance with the minor subject regulations.
Mathematics modules
At least 15 credit points must be acquired in each of the areas of Algebra/Analysis/Geometry (AAG) and Applied Mathematics/Stochastics (AMS), plus at least 21 credit points in a specialisation and 30 credit points in the thesis module. A seminar or reading course module must be successfully completed, an internship module (professional field or activity field internship) can be selected.
The study specialisations can be chosen in the following areas:
- Algebra
- Analysis
- Geometry
- Numerical mathematics
- Stochastics
- Financial mathematics
Possible subsidiary subjects are:
- Biology
- Chemistry
- Geography
- Computer Science
- Philosophy
- Theoretical Physics
- Experimental Physics
- Economics
In addition, supplementary modules may be freely selected if the aforementioned conditions are fulfilled.
The Master's thesis in the chosen specialisation demonstrates the ability to conduct independent scientific work and completes the degree programme.
