Learning outcomes
- | The advanced study module in Mathematics is intended to give the student a solid knowledge of the foundations of mathematics applicable in information technology. After finishing the module the student can carry out typical mathematical modelling tasks and implement the models in a computer program. The module gives the student necessary prerequisites for postgraduate studies and other further training. |

Additional information
Advanced studies in mathematics applicable in information technology can be made in one of two focus areas: Discrete Mathematics or Mathematical Modelling. These studies provide a solid mathematical background in their respective areas of application in information technology, and each focus area constitutes a well-defined major subject.
