MSc: 2 years ( 120 ECTS units ) The need to understand complex phenomena, simulate operations and make critical decisions to manage scarce resources and sophisticated technologies in highly competitive environments has significantly increased the interests in applied mathematics. With the MSc in Applied Mathematics to Engineering and Finance, ISEP trains professionals with specialized knowledge in mathematical computation and modelling, data mining and risk analysis to support the resolution of technological and financial problems. Throughout the course, students also develop advanced skills in computational calculation, actuarial mathematics, and statistics, and learn how to manage professional software like MatLab, SPSS, R and RapidMiner. Designed for engineering, mathematics, economics, management and accounting graduates, the course takes into account a wide range of profiles and professional ambitions. The programme ensures a close contact with companies. Students can analyse case studies, participate in seminars with invited experts and develop their final project in corporate or research environments. Recently, students presented studies concerning stock management, electrical prices evolution and automatic tools for risk analysis. Schedule Evening Schedule: Monday to Friday, 18:10-23:30. Partnerships In recent years, students developed their final project in companies like EDP , Grupo Nors , research groups such as LEMA , among others.
