Technomathematics (M.Sc.) at TU Berlin

About

The Technomathematics master's program teaches you how to reduce concrete technical problems to their mathematical form both with and without the use of a computer. It further teaches you how to analyze the problem structures and develop and realize approaches for solving these problems. The program offers students a high degree of flexibility and a number of possibilities for tailoring the curriculum to their own interests, allowing them to create their own individual profile. Students have a study focus in which they advance and expand their mathematical knowledge and skills in the field of numerical mathematics, differential equations, functional analysis, nonlinear optimization, modeling, stochastics and financial mathematics, or mathematics and algebra. This material is supplemented with technical and engineering content from your bachelors study program. The curriculum offers students a number of different possibilities to gain application experience and orient themselves in order to establish a connection to the work and tasks of mathematicians in practice.

Building on a related bachelors degree, the master's program provides you with further skills: You advance and expand your mathematical knowledge and skills as well as your skills in an engineering field within your elective. You also learn to conduct independent scientific work and can critically integrate new scientific findings, implementing them in a targeted manner. Furthermore, you develop the ability to act and work independently and responsibly. Students also acquire teamwork and communication skills as well as a sensitivity to gender issues.
