M.Sc. Mathematics International

Applicants must provide proof of their English language skills, e.g. with a high school certificate comparable to the German "Abitur" or a TOEFL certificate. Our requirement for the TOEFL is 550 points (written test), 215 points (computer test), or 79 points (Internet-based test).

Bachelor's degree in Mathematics or Physics or comparable study programmes.

The proof of a qualified university degree exists, if it includes equivalent examination achievements in relevant scientifically-based Bachelor's degree programmes in Mathematics (B.S. Mathematik, B.S. Computational mathematics, Mathematische Physik) at the Julius Maximilians Universität Würzburg, and if it meets the requirements of the Master's degree programme.

In the period leading up to the application, please get informed about whether the courses that you have previously taken are comparable with basic courses at the JMU. Whether a degree is equivalent to the JMU degree can only be established during the official application process.

Minimum requirements for admission to the Master programme Mathematics International are the following:

• courses totalling at least 70 ECTS credits in the following fields of mathematics: Analysis (differential and integral calculus in one or several variables) ordinary and partial differential equations, vector analysis, complex analysis, linear algebra, algebra, number theory, geometry, discrete mathematics, functional analysis, numerical mathematics, stochastics, financial mathematics, operations research, optimization, mathematical modelling and scientific computing,

courses totalling at least 10 ECTS credits in the forementioned or other fields of mathematics,

courses totalling at least 30 ECTS credits in any field of mathematics or in subjects which apply mathematical methods (e.g., biology, chemistry, geography, computer science, aerospace computer science, physics, economics).

The number of ECTS credits corresponds to the estimated workload associated to the course (including time solving exercise problems and preparation for the exam): one ECTS credit corresponds to 25-30 hours.
