The aim of the degree programme is to show how problems from business and technology can be translated into the language of mathematics and solved using mathematical models. Often, there is not just one particular mathematical model in question - which makes things exciting. Right from the course start, great importance is attached to mathematical rigour and to demonstrating the connection between theory and practice in order to make the importance of model-theoretical approaches to solving real economic problems transparent. The Mathematical Economics degree qualifies students for various appointments in business and administration, which place higher demands on mathematical and economic skills, e.g. in insurance companies, consulting firms, software houses, banks, computer centres, statistical offices, etc.
