What's after?
- Graduates will be able to work in science and education institutions, high-technology industries, agencies of data analysis and social investigations, management institutions. Graduates will also be able to pursue a career in any other sphere, where their mathematical knowledge, analytical skills and ability to use specialized software are needed.
- Graduates can also pursue further studies at the doctoral level in Mathematics or Computer Sciences.
Programme specific requirements
- At least first level studies leading with a bachelor diploma are required.
- English language proficiency - the level not lower than B2 (following the Common Framework of Reference for Language approved by the Council of Europe).
