About the Program
The two-year Master's program in Business Mathematics is a scientifically research-oriented program that establishes a close connection between mathematics, economics, and computer science. The program builds on knowledge acquired in the Bachelor's program in Mathematics at RPTU in Kaiserslautern. It requires prior basic theoretical and practical knowledge in mathematical modeling, computer science & computer-supported methods, stochastics, and mathematical optimization. The education aims to enable students to assess possibilities (and limitations) of mathematical modeling for business, financial, and economic issues, develop efficient mathematical models, and implement them in practice. Students choose a specialization in one of the areas: Financial Mathematics, Optimization, or Statistics, where they are specifically introduced to current application-oriented mathematical research. The program is flexibly structured without mandatory courses, but with prescribed volumes from specific course catalogs. After completing the studies, graduates typically work in the service sector, in planning departments of industry, or in research and teaching in business mathematics or economics.
