Overview

The following provides an idea for modules that go well together to provide a more focussed MSc. experience. There is no requirement to chose modules from only one of the topic lists given below, they are just to provide some help getting started with choosing modules that match your interests. The lists are very extensive and students need to make sure that their choice matches the requirements outlined in the MSc handbook. And while the lists are quite extensive, the list is not complete and additional math modules and modules from other Department could surely be added so make sure to take a closer look at the Departmental module list in addition to the lists given here.

The lists contain modules taught in 2023/2024 - not all of them will be available in coming years but similar modules will be available. For information on module content and required background for each module see the module descriptions (follow the links) for details.
