About the Program
Mathematics plays a central role in many scientific disciplines such as physics, engineering, computer science, or economics. It provides fundamental tools and algorithms for modeling climate systems, simulating complex fluids, or optimizing neural networks and power grids, to name just a few examples. The international Master's program in Mathematics at BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg focuses on applied mathematics. The curriculum includes typical abstract theoretical foundations of mathematical methods while teaching methods for solving practical research problems in science, technology, data science, or finance. A special feature of the Mathematics program at BTU is that students choose a certain number of courses from economics or one of the natural and engineering science programs (e.g., physics or computer science) to prepare for a later career in one of these fields. This includes the opportunity to take language courses to improve career prospects.
