Master German + English Mathematics & Natural Sciences

Mathematics in Data and Technology

Master of Science (M.Sc.)

About the Program

The English-language Master's program in Mathematics in Data and Technology is aimed at graduates of Bachelor's programs in mathematics, computer science, engineering or natural sciences. It provides in-depth knowledge in areas of Applied Mathematics and related scientific disciplines relevant for mathematical data analysis in application areas such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, or simulation of real processes. Building on an introductory module that provides an overview of the fields of Numerics, Stochastics, and Optimization, as well as an advanced module in either Numerics or Stochastics, the program offers the possibility of individual specialization in areas such as Deep Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Optimization, and Statistics. Students are enabled to analyze, evaluate, and further develop the mathematical methods in these fields. Successful completion of the Master's program qualifies graduates for careers in fields such as data analysis, digital engineering, application and methodology in Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence, risk modeling, or software development. Above-average qualified graduates also have the opportunity to pursue an academic career.
