Quick Facts:

The Department of Mathematical Sciences has strong traditions in a broad range of research, both in pure and applied mathematics. We are a joint department of two universities in Gothenburg: The University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology. As the largest department in mathematical sciences in Sweden, we can offer a broad range of courses, which opens up opportunities for collaborations and several specializations.
Some specializations are more theoretical and research-oriented and will prepare you for further research and a career in academia. Other specializations are geared more towards applied mathematics and better prepare you for work within the private sector but could also lead to an academic career. Some specializations, such as mathematical statistics, can be more theoretical or applied depending on your interests.
Graduates of the programme receive the degree Master of Science in Mathematics or Master of Science in Mathematical Statistics.
