Applied Mathematics
How can mathematics explain why some cars face more air resistance than others? How can the frequency of an electric power grid be maintained despite external disturbances? How do diseases spread in a population? If you are interested in using mathematical tools to analyse and design dynamic and large scale systems that are essential to modern technology, this Master's degree programme is for you.
