Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
- Have integrated and elaborate mathematical knowledge.
- Mobilise the Bachelor's course in mathematics to address complex issues and have profound mathematical expertise to complement the knowledge developed in the Bachelor's course.
- Carry out major projects.
- Independently carry out a major project related to mathematics or mathematical applications. This entails taking into account the complexity of the project, its objectives and the resources available to carry it out.
- Give constructive criticism on the quality and progress of a project.
- Work in teams and, in particular, communicate effectively and with respect for others.
- Appropriately use bibliographic resources for the intended purpose.
- Present the objectives and results of a project orally and in writing.
- Apply innovative methods to solve an unprecedented problem in mathematics or within its applications.
- Mobilise knowledge, and research and analyse various information sources to propose innovative solutions targeted unprecedented issues.
- Communicate clearly.
- Communicate the results of mathematical or related fields, both orally and in writing, by adapting to the public.
- make a structured and reasoned presentation of the content and principles underlying a piece of work, mobilised skills and the conclusions it leads to.
- Have sufficient knowledge of English for basic scientific communication.
- Skill 6: Have acquired professional skills in relation to the objective defining the degree.
- Have gained expertise and specialised knowledge in a field of mathematics in order to enter fully into the world of research.
- Demonstrate intuition and creativity to tackle new mathematical problems.
- Expose high-level mathematical results to a specialised audience.
- Have integrated and elaborate mathematical knowledge.
- Mobilise the Bachelor's course in mathematics to address complex issues and have profound mathematical expertise to complement the knowledge developed in the Bachelor's course.
- Use prior knowledge to independently learn high-level mathematics.
- Research mathematical literature in an efficient and relevant way.
