In the era of big data and ever-increasing computer power, Computational Mathematics methods are key drivers of progress and innovation in many areas of application that include finance, data science (including machine learning), science and engineering, and numerous other areas of industry and government. Our interdisciplinary Master’s program is taught by professors from each of the five academic units in the Faculty of Mathematics.

Graduates will be able to effectively deploy a wide range of mathematical, statistical and computational techniques to solve large problems in science, industry, big data and commerce; to develop, enhance and maintain the relevant software tools; and to communicate results of complex methods and models to end-users.
