Master in Mathematics [120.0] - MATH2MMathematics contains a profusion of different kinds of ideas leading to the discovery of new geometric universes, new areas of functions, new algebraic structures, all of which are linked to one another by very strong links which, overall, create great simplicity, richness and beauty. In the research focus, the programme combines general training in the key areas of basic mathematics with more advanced training in one of the Department’s research areas: functional analysis, differential equations, variation calculus, the geometric theory of measurement, algebraic groups, category theory, the theory of integrable systems and its links with complex algebraic geometry, noncommutative geometry, algebraic topology and knot theory. In the teaching focus, the programme combined general training for secondary school teachers with specific training in mathematics, highlighting the connection between theory and practice ; there is also the possibility of additional training in mathematics or teaching another scientific subject. These additional training courses expand the range of skills for future teachers. The Master in Mathematics at UCL is jointly organized with a similar programme at the Facultés Universitaires Notre-dame de la Paix (FUNDP) in Namur. Both the overall structure of the programme as well as students’ progression are basically the same at both universities. However, the training activities are grouped in specific special subjects at each university. General presentation of the programme
The programme comprises core subjects of 60 credits, a focus of 30 credits (research or teaching) and 30 credits for optional subjects or 30 credits for the option course in statistics.
Wathever the focus or the options chosen, the programme of this master shall totalise 120 credits, spread over two years of studies each of 60 credits Focus Optional courses
Whatever focus is chosen, the Master in Mathematics gives direct access to the doctorate in science.
