Mathematics

This 3-year bachelor's degree programme allows you to specialise in both pure and applied mathematics. The programme is open for international students and taught in English.

The first year consists of a well-balanced programme that you follow together with all other students. This gives you a firm basis for the rest of your studies. In year two you decide to continue with a major in either Pure or Applied Mathematics. Various study tracks and optional courses allow you to pursue your personal interests. During your minor in the first half of year three, you focus entirely on your favourite topic. You can also pursue your minor at a foreign university. Our study counsellors will make sure that you choose the study path that suits you best. The programme finishes with a research project in which everything you learnt is combined.

Within the major Pure Mathematics, you can choose between three tracks: Algebra and Geometry, Analysis and Dynamical Systems, and Probability and Statistics. Within the major Applied Mathematics, you can choose between four tracks: Biomedical Mathematics, Computer science, Data Science, and Econometrics and Operations Research. As for the minor, besides a wide variety of academic minors, there is also the Education minor, which is taught in Dutch. After completing the Education minor, you receive a qualification for teaching in Dutch high schools.
