Become a mathematical problem solver able to tackle challenging issues from technology to healthcare.
Can you predict when something goes viral? How do you model 5G? What happens in your brain when an epileptic seizure occurs? These questions all have one thing in common: mathematics is the way to come up with answers. In this 2 years master’s at the University of Twente (UT) you will apply mathematics to challenging issues in the most diverse sectors, ranging from technology to healthcare. You will learn how to discover new patterns and how to predict them through mathematical models. As a graduate you will have an impact on society as well as be in huge demand on the job market.
Specializations
- Mathematical Systems Theory, Applied Analysis and Computational Science. How can diabetics always keep their blood sugar at a certain level? How can computer simulations help to identify brain regions causing symptoms of epilepsy? How do you determine the exact moment at which a machine needs maintenance without wasting production time? In this specialisation you will delve deeper into systems theory, applied analysis and computational science. You will also explore related fields of application, such as life sciences, control theory, material sciences, and geo sciences. You will learn to develop new models and apply existing ones to improve our understanding of processes.
- Mathematics of Data Science. How can you predict when something goes viral on Twitter by modelling social media networks? How to choose the most suitable location for a new fire station based on available data from the region? And when is data actually usable? In this specialisation you will apply mathematical models and algorithms to analyse data, draw conclusions and make decisions. You will learn about new developments in fields such as machine learning, big data and statistics. Most importantly, you will learn about the underlying mathematics.
- Operations Research. How do you make a complete residential area energy neutral? How should an Operating Room schedule in a hospital be designed? How do you optimise business processes? How to model 5G? These are just a few of the issues addressed in this specialisation. In OR you will learn how to design mathematical methods that allow the team you work in to find optimal solutions.
The programme offers an environment where you can specialize in modern mathematical techniques, working closely with other academic disciplines such as physics, (industrial) engineering, logistics and computer science. You will be considered a junior member of the research department and actively participate in your supervisor’s research programme.
Na studia magisterskie mogą kandydować wszyscy, którzy ukończyli studia licencjackie lub inżynierskie (studia I stopnia), studia magisterskie lub studiują na ostatnim roku studiów I-stopnia. Studia, które planujesz powinny mieć zbliżony profil do tych obecnych lub ukończonych, ponieważ w procesie rekrutacji kluczowa jest ich zgodność programowa.
- Wykaz punktów ECTS – osoby, które są jeszcze w trakcie studiów, muszą załączyć wypis punktów ECTS, w którym będzie wykazane, jakie przedmioty były realizowane na studiach oraz ile punktów za nie otrzymano.
- Dyplom ukończenia studiów licencjackich lub inżynierskich – jeśli jesteś absolwentem wyższej uczelni, nie potrzebujesz wypisu, wystarczy załączyć dyplom ukończenia studiów wraz z suplementem (w języku angielskim lub oryginał z tłumaczeniem)
- Uwaga! Każdy kierunek magisterski może mieć inne wymagania i wymagać specyficznych dodatkowych dokumentów. Przed aplikacją sprawdź na stronie uczelni, jakich dokumentów potrzebujesz!
WAŻNE! Opłata aplikacyjna - uczelnia pobiera opłatę aplikacyjną w wysokości 100 euro, którą należy uiścić przy składaniu aplikacji (podczas wysyłania formularza aplikacyjnego zostaniesz poinformowany, jak to zrobić). Tutaj można znaleźć więcej informacji na temat tej opłaty i jej wysokości. Opłata aplikacyjna jest opłacana wyłącznie raz, niezależnie od ilości wybranych kierunków na tej uczelni.
IELTS - 6.5
Graduates of the Master’s programme in Applied Mathematics find employment in numerous sectors of industry and academia such as R&D departments in industry, consultancy firms, research and teaching positions, teaching at high schools and even higher management.
In our technology-dependent society, commercial and governmental organizations have a growing need for professionals with an up-to-date background in applied mathematics at an academic level. Naturally there are also numerous careers awaiting applied mathematicians in academia, where these skills are in high demand as well.
