MathMods Joint MSc programme (Mathematical Modelling in Engineering: Theory, Numerics, Applications), Europe

Fields: Mathematics. Qualification: Bachelors
Description:
MathMods is a 2-year Joint Master Degree programme in Mathematical Modelling in Engineering run by three European universities based in L'Aquila (Italy), Hamburg (Germany) and Nice (France) - in a word, The MathMods Consortium.
The Consortium can also
count on the collaboration with associated academic institutions (in Hamburg,
Germany, and in L'Aquila, Italy), and can rely on the effective support of
several companies, research institutes and non-profit organizations in
different aspects of the project.
Academic
Requirements
Bachelor's
Degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or other similar fields with a very strong mathematical background (BS, BSc, SB, etc. or
a degree at the same level as an academic Bachelor's Degree, e.g. it's
equivalent from a college, university, or technical school of high standing, or
180 ECTS credits in the European system).

in the final year of their undergraduate study can be admitted on condition
that their Bachelor's degree is awarded before the enrolment in the MathMods
MSc, namely before 15 August.
