Program description
From the elegance of theory and pure thinking to applications in nearly all fields of the natural sciences, engineering, economics, finance, and even the social sciences, mathematics is the cornerstone of science. Even though mathematics is an old subject and has been used for centuries, data science advancements over the past 20 years have transformed both these applications and some fields of mathematics.
This multidisciplinary program's main benefit is that it gives students the background necessary to model real-world problems and the algorithmic, data-driven methods for solving them, in addition to providing them with mathematical tools for problem formulation and analysis. The program's goal of a strong mathematical foundation gives students more analytical tools and modeling issues to work with, which in turn provides a wealth of mathematical questions.
Program structure
Year 1
- Analysis
- Programming in Python and C++
- Linear Algebra
- Mathematical Modelling
- Students can choose between the following two mandatory elective modules in the second semester:
- Core Algorithms and Data Structures
- Algorithms and Data Structures
Year 2
- Algebra
- Complex Analysis
- Real Analysis
- Number Theory
- Discrete Mathematics
- Computational Modeling
- Machine Learning
- Scientific Data Analysis
- Choose one specialization module:
- Topology and Differential Geometry
- Foundations of Mathematical Physics
- Stochastic Modeling and Financial Mathematics
- Dynamical Systems
- Stochastic Processes
Year 3
During their third year, students prepare and make decisions for their career after graduation. To explore available choices, and to gain professional experience, students take a mandatory summer internship. The third year of studies allows Mathematics, Modeling and Data Analytics students to take specialization modules within their discipline, but also focuses on the responsibility of students beyond their discipline.
To pursue Mathematics as a major, students take all in all 4 modules from mandatory elective Specialization modules:
- Stochastic Processes
- Foundations of Mathematical Physics
- Dynamical Systems
- Topology and Differential Geometry
- Stochastic Modeling and Financial Mathematics
The following Specialization modules from Physics and Data Science and master's program in CSSE can substitute 1 module of the above Specialization modules:
- Quantum Mechanics
- Analytical Mechanics
- Particle Fields and Quanta
- Quantum Informatics
Price
Fee for two semesters (1 year) is 20,000 EUR for international students:
Fees up to (University Fees, Semester Ticket)* — 600 EUR.
*All fees are subject to change and this information sheet should be considered a guide only.
Requirements for applicants
- Recommendation letter (from a teacher, counselor, chancellor, or principal)
- Official or certified copies of high school transcripts (last 2-3 years of transcripts)
- Educational history form
You must complete 'Additional High School Information' in the Common App's 'Questions' section. Here you must attach an Educational History Form listing all the schools you've attended up to now.
- Standardized testing (sat/act)
If your high school diploma doesn't grant you straight entrance to a German institution, SAT/ACT may be required for enrollment. University doesn't require test scores from Abitur graduates. If you don't submit a standardized test, your application will be evaluated based on your personal essay, recommendations, academic achievements, extracurricular activities, and application presentation.
- Language proficiency test
Test scores might show a non-native speaker's English skills. You'll get a waiver if:
- natural English speakers;
- trained entirely in English for at least 6 years;
- 600 or higher on Evidence-Based Reading and Writing;
- 9 or higher on ACT Writing.
- Motivation statement
About the university
Constructor University is one of the most internationally focused educational institutions in the globe and is located in Bremen, Germany. Since its inception in 2001, the university has attracted a diverse and talented student body from all corners of the globe.
More than 1,500 undergraduate and graduate students from more than 110 countries are presently residing on campus and being prepared for a global career in business and science.
Constructor University has a wide range of degrees that combine different fields of study, from the natural sciences, math, and engineering to the social sciences and economics.
Classes are small, and each professor works as a mentor and academic advisor for each student. From the first year of school, students are interested in research. Constructor University students learn to be responsible global citizens who can use the skills they've learned to make a change in the world.
Mission and goals
University goal is to inspire young, talented people, regardless of nationality, religion, or background, to become global citizens who can assume leadership and responsibility for the future sustainable and peaceful development of humanity through academic education, intensive support, and living together on an international campus.
From this mission statement, Constructor University has deduced four key goals for its educational profile:
- Quality is achieved, in part, by early student involvement in research projects, multidisciplinary instruction, and individualized academic mentoring.
- Individual development the development of social and self-competence in a diverse community.
- Interculturality fostering intercultural competence by residing on a campus with students from more than 110 different countries and learning there.
- Competence building providing the specialized and transdisciplinary skills necessary for a successful career in business or science.
