About the programme
The MSc Mathematics at Ulm University is for you if you hold a Bachelor's in mathematics or a related field and want to take your knowledge up to the current state of research. It is worth 120 ECTS, is taught in German and English, and you can start in the summer or winter semester. You take compulsory electives in pure and applied mathematics, add transferable skills, and choose your own specialisations from the faculty's research areas. Courses discuss current research, and you work on research questions of your own, especially in your Master's thesis. You can spend one or two semesters abroad, and the mathematics Master's programmes have a USA exchange that lets you spend a year at an American university. It suits people who enjoy analytical and logical thinking and see mathematical research or its application as a career.
