Within the graduate school of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, you as a doctoral student can develop new methods and approaches. These you can apply to both classical and new problems in the new application areas that are central to applied mathematics.   

In the doctoral program in applied mathematics and statistics, the goal is to provide the student with basic knowledge in applied mathematics, information on current issues and practical uses as well as skills in research methodology. As a doctoral student, you can also take part in doctoral projects that originate from technology and life sciences applications and involve collaborations with academic and industrial partners.  

Education as a licentiate aims to enable the student to independently participate in research and development work. The goal as a doctoral student, is to provide the ability to critically and independently plan, lead, complete and present research, and development work. Read more in the study plan.

The graduate school is organised within the Department of Mathematical Sciences.
