Overview
Program description:
The aim of the masters program in mathematics is to give a comprehensive knowledge of several areas in pure mathematics, and introduce students into doing research. A large number of courses is offered, covering several areas of theoretical mathematics (algebra, real and complex analysis, differential equations, discrete mathematics, geometry, number theory, operations research, stochastics, topology). Besides purely theoretical courses, some courses are application oriented, giving state-of-the-art introduction into fields like financial mathematics, theoretical computer science or interdisciplinary subjects as bioinformatics. The program ends with writing a thesis.
Type of entrance exam:
oral and written
Entrance exam location:
online
Entrance exam description:
A written test will be sent to the applicants, covering basic fields of mathematics. In a limited amount of time the applicant will have to send back the solutions. In some cases a skype interview may follow.

Career opportunities
Our graduates will be able to apply for Ph.D. studies either at Eötvös Loránd University or anywhere in the world. Many students will, however, continue their career immediately in the industrial research and development, often at high tech industries in telecommunication, financial institutions or insurance companies or in software development of such research giants as Google.
Job examples:
•University professor
•Research mathematician in a research institute
•System analyst in a financial institution (bank, investment, insurance)
•High tech industry
•Teacher of mathematics
