Programmes
As for mathematicians in general, unemployment among applied mathematicians is virtually unknown. The master’s degree in Applied Mathematics aims towards employment in the private business sector or at research institutions. It is common for applied mathematics projects to be completed on behalf of or in collaboration with companies.
If you want to work in research, a master’s degree from the University of Southern Denmark is an advantageous foundation to a PhD.
An applied mathematician is often motivated by a problem outside the realm of mathematics. An applied mathematician masters, and is capable of developing the mathematical tools that have helped create the modern society of industry and information.
An applied mathematician can:
-comprehend a complex problem
-make a credible model of the problem
-analyse and calculate the consequences of the model
-implement algorithms belonging to the model on a computer.
This Master programme has a high level of flexibility meaning that the only mandatory part of the programme is 10 ECTS of constituent Master courses within the areas Mathematics and Statistics and Algorithms and Optimisation. In addition there are 20 ECTS of elective courses where you can choose between all Master courses within science.
The programme contains a perspectival module where it is possible to take an internship, go abroad on exchange or to specialise by following elective courses.
The 60 ECTS master thesis gives you plenty of time to specialise in a topic within applied mathematics. The thesis is carried out with a supervisor and it is concluded with an oral presentation.
It is not possible for students without a command of the Danish language to take supplementary courses to bring them up to the required level for graduate study.
Applicants will need to document English at B Level or equivalent to this level.

There is a tuition fee for all full-time degree students who hold a citizenship from outside of EU/EAA/Switzerland.
SDU offers 75 scholarships yearly. The scholarship consists of two parts: full tuition fee waiver and a grant, to help cover living costs amounting to $ 950 per month before taxes. Candidates must come from a non-EU/EEA country and be eligible to pay tuition fees. The scholarship will be awarded to the best qualified of the eligible applicants. All eligible applicants who are offered a study place, will automatically be considered for the scholarship. No separate application is needed. The best-qualified candidates based on points will be awarded the scholarship.
