Программа обучения "Mathematical Economics" в University of Wuppertal

Wirtschaftsmathematik

Many processes in economic life can only be recorded or mapped using mathematics. Models for financial markets or operational processes or the pricing of options are based on mathematical approaches. The course combines mathematics with computer science and economics. The task of business mathematicians is to model economic problems mathematically and then to solve them.

Описание программы обучения "Mathematical Economics"

The bachelor's program in Business Mathematics offers you a course in mathematics with a special focus on applications in economics. Larger areas of economics and the basics of practical computer science are integrated into the course.

Many processes in economic life can only be recorded and quantified using mathematical approaches. This includes not only the description of economic activity using statistical methods, but also specific models for financial markets or business processes. Typical examples are the problem of finding the optimal route for a traveling salesman, coordinating the timetable of a transport company, or pricing options. To formulate such and similar problems exactly and then to solve them, often with the help of a computer, is the subject of business mathematics.

The course provides you with solid knowledge of basic theories and conceptualizations in mathematics and practical computer science as well as broad knowledge of economics. In addition, you will learn how to apply mathematical models to typical issues in business administration and economics.

The mathematical subjects make up around 60% of the course, computer science between 10% and 15% and economics between 25% and 30%, depending on the individual design. In the advanced mathematical courses, the focus is on areas that are particularly relevant for applications in business and economics. An important part of the course is an external internship in which you gain experience in a company.

Карьерные перспективы по завершению программы обучения "Mathematical Economics"

Business mathematicians are often involved in solving complex business problems because of their analytical skills and structured thinking. Although there is no clear job profile, there are some typical sectors:

  • Banks
  • Insurance
  • IT service providers and IT consultants
  • Software development
  • smaller companies without their own optimization and finance departments, where they are responsible for market research, market analysis, controlling and risk management
  • Management consulting and auditing

The course concludes with a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.). With the B.Sc. you acquire an academic qualification that is not only recognized in Germany, but also at least in the member states of the European Union as a result of the ongoing harmonization of higher education in Europe. The bachelor's degree qualifies you for a job and is a prerequisite for admission to a master's degree.

Учебный план программы обучения "Mathematical Economics"

The bachelor's program in Business Mathematics consists of the subjects Mathematics, Computer Science, Business Mathematics and Economics.

It begins with a basic mathematical part, which consists of modules on analysis, linear algebra in the first year of study and stochastics and numerics in the second year of study and essentially represents a basic course in mathematics. The mathematics lectures in the first year are accompanied by tutorials.

In the first year, the modules Basics of Computer Science and Programming as well as Basics of Practical Computer Science are also added from Computer Science.

In the second year, in addition to further mathematical training, the economics part of the course begins. Courses on the basics of business administration (BWL) and/or economics (VWL) are on the program, which are continued in the third year of study with individually selectable modules such as business informatics, econometrics, accounting, production, accounting, finance or controlling.

The specific economic mathematics subjects optimization, applied statistics, financial mathematics and insurance mathematics are completed in the third year of study.

Two internships are part of the course: an internal internship in numerics and an external industrial internship that is to be completed during the lecture-free period, for example between the second and third year of study. Finally, at the end of the course, you prepare your final thesis (bachelor thesis) and present it in a project seminar
