Master's synergy tracks
Math of Computing Science
Focuses on many common themes that pure mathematics shares with theoretical computer science. From the foundations in logic, on which proof assistants are built, the theory of algorithms and their complexity, right to the implementation of algebraic objects in computer algebra and their application to cryptography.
Math of Data Science
You study the modern disciplines in computational modelling and data science that play an increasingly important role in modern science as well as in industry and society. It interconnects applied mathematics with specialisations in physics and computer science. Important research topics are Data Analysis, Machine Learning, and Computational Modelling.
