Overview

The aim of the Applied Mathematics master program is to train professionals
who have a well-grounded mathematical and informational knowledge in a
theoretically. They are able to gain knowledge in industrial, commercial,
agricultural, logistics, communication, finance and computer science issues to be
used for analysis, modelling and finding a solution for them. Furthermore, the
best ones are able to keep going on in doctoral level training and deepen their
skills and knowledge.

is required to choose a speciality.

At the Faculty of Sciences, the education is provided in a system of seminars,
laboratoris and lectures. Lectures are held for bigger audiences, sometimes
combined for similar sciences field together. At the end of the semester students
have to pass written or oral examinations. Seminars are usually more informal
study groups for a smaler group of students, where there is room for individual
consultation, discussion of the material and solving exercises. They usually
conclude with an independently written paper or an examination.

•Grade 3 is satisfactory.
•Grade 2 is a pass.
