This allows for student exchanges and other forms of co-operation. If the individual program permits, each trainee spends a period abroad at one of the ECMI partner universities. The program offers three orientations. Each orientation focuses on its own field of application. The mathematical techniques that are required in this orientation stem primarily from the analysis of and the numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations.
Central themes are elasticity theory, fluid dynamics, electromagnetism and heat conduction theory.
This orientation has been founded to be able to meet the growing demand for specialists in the world of the communication and information techniques. Core fields of this orientation are coding, cryptography, data compression and image processing. The orientation has strong ties with certain fields of electrical engineering and computing science. Mathematical techniques, typical for this orientation, often have a discrete mathematical nature. In particular graduates with a firm basis in algebra and combinatorics will apply.
