We regularly offer specialised courses covering current research topics across various areas of mathematics. These courses complement the programme's specialisation modules and can be counted as restricted electives within elective module C.1. Topics range from analysis, algebra, and optimisation to discrete mathematics and data science, with the course catalogue updated each semester.
Students pursuing one of the designated focus areas ("Pure Mathematics", "Applied Mathematics", "Discrete Mathematics", "Technomathematics", or "Statistics, Actuarial and Financial Mathematics") will find courses here that are well-suited to their chosen specialisation modules.
