The courses in the research focus enable students to acquire mathematical tools. They will mostly be accompanied by work which forms the main part of the assessment. Individual work, group work and work in the library will be encouraged. The ‘research courses’ are directly linked to the most advanced research areas in the Department. There is a wide network of inter-university links as well as international ones.
Students will be encouraged to take courses (research focus) at other universities. Students who are not doing an Erasmus exchange are recommended to take advantage of these agreements to make their training for research more effective. It is not possible in every institution to develop a group of courses designed to provide advanced training for the different areas of research. The second year programme includes a course in each of the research areas and, through inter-university agreements, offers the possibility of more advanced training by borrowing specific courses from other institutions.
The interdisciplinary nature of the programme is reflected in the compulsory part of the two focuses with courses borrowed from the programmes of the Masters in Physics and Mathematical Engineering. Advanced teacher training in other subjects than mathematics is possible for students taking the teaching focus.
