Department of Mathematics and Systems Analysis

The seven main research areas of the department are: algebra and discrete mathematics, analysis, math&arts, mathematical physics, mathematical statistics and data science, numerical analysis, and systems and operations research. We offer major and minor studies at the bachelor's and master's level and provide doctoral research training. Our graduates have been recruited by universities, research institutes, governmental agencies as well as companies in the financial, energy and transportation sectors, for instance.
