Master's programmes

The Master's degree programme of the Department consists of two consecutive and three specialised Master's studies, which enable students to deepen the knowledge acquired during their Bachelor's degree.

Consecutive Master's

Mathematics or Applied Mathematics

The Master’s programme in mathematics consolidates the knowledge acquired in the ETH Zurich Bachelor’s degree programme and leads to a Master's degree either in Mathematics or in Applied Mathematics.

To obtain a Master's degree in Mathematics, students can choose from a broad range of courses and seminars. The requirements for the Master's degree in Applied Mathematics are similar, but students are required to focus on an area of applied mathematics and select an application area.
