Overview

The MSc programme takes two full years of study. All MSc students complete their Individual Plans of Study (IPS). The IPS includes some mandatory items. However, most courses are chosen by the student (students can choose from a certain number of special topics courses and a certain number of research seminars). A course project must be completed by the end of the first year. By the end of their course of study, students are required to submit a Master’s thesis. A presentation of their thesis results, in the form of a seminar, is also a requirement. Every MSc student has a faculty advisor who supervises the course project and the Master’s thesis.

The Faculty of Mathematics has a 4-year PhD programme that is free for everybody. Students who wish to enter this programme are required to pass an entrance exam.

International PhD programmes in Mathematics are also offered by the Institute of Information Transmission Problems and the Steklov Mathematical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (both institutes being located in Moscow). They are focused on fundamental and applied research.
