General presentation of the programme

The first year is in common with the bachelor programme in Physical Sciences. From the second year on, the students are encouraged to choose a minor or to complete their programme with additional options. Minors are offered in Computing Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, Physics and Economics. The student may also choose another minor from the University programme, based on a project to be elaborated together with the study advisor.
 
The activities offered include theoretical courses, exercises sessions, tasks, active participation in a seminar and the written summary of a given work task.
 
Language courses accompany the programme and aim at the mastery of scientific English.
