Applied Mathematics
How can mathematics explain why some cars face more air resistance than others? How can the frequency of an electric power grid be maintained despite external disturbances? How do diseases spread in a population? If you are interested in using mathematical tools to analyse and design dynamic and large scale systems that are essential to modern technology, this Master's degree programme is for you.
What to expect from the Master's programme in Applied Mathematics
✔ Build strong technical skills through real-life applications
✔ Study in an international and collaborative environment
✔Develop research, analytical, and problem-solving abilities
This two-year Master's at the University of Groningen focuses on applying mathematical models to solve complex problems in engineering, science, and technology. The programme blends theory with practical work and promotes interdisciplinary collaboration. You'll join a research group, work on projects, and may complete internships. The international setting prepares you for careers in research, industry, or further study.
