LEARNING OUTCOMES

Prove mastery of the relevant mathematical methods, further develop them and adapt them to new contexts.
Demonstrate a broad understanding of several areas of advanced mathematics and of their interrelations.
Analyse complex problems of other fields of science and technology, plan strategies for their resolution, and apply notions and methods of (pure and applied) mathematics to solve them.
Apply a wide repertoire of probabilistic concepts, computational science techniques and engineering-oriented methodologies of modern financial and industrial mathematics to real-life problems, and formulate suitable solutions.
Approach other related areas of knowledge and recognize interconnections.
Communicate mathematical information accurately and efficiently both to younger students or the public at large, as well as to an expert audience.
Cooperate effectively in a team and work independently.
Function professionally and give proof of open-mindedness, dynamism, competence, sense of responsibility, and willingness to take leadership if needed.
Manage risk appropriately and handle failure in a constructive manner.
Hone continuously their own personal and professional qualities, in particular via life-long and self-directed learning.
