The English-language Master’s degree programme in Mathematics is designed for students who seek to deepen their understanding of mathematical theories and applications. It offers specializations in Applied Analysis, Applied Statistics, and Discrete Mathematics, ensuring practical relevance through collaboration with technology and finance sectors. Graduates are prepared for careers in various fields, including finance, technology, and research.
Students will explore advanced mathematical concepts and their applications in various fields. Key topics include statistical methods, applied mathematics, and computational techniques. The program integrates theoretical knowledge with practical applications, allowing students to address complex real-world challenges.
The program is organized into four semesters, with a focus on foundational courses in the first semester followed by electives in subsequent semesters. Students are required to complete a practical internship and a final master's thesis to graduate.
Graduates will gain expertise in mathematical modeling, data analysis, and the application of various mathematical techniques to solve real-world problems. They will be equipped with skills necessary to thrive in interdisciplinary environments and contribute to technological advancements.

Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
