Programme description	Are you interested in advanced mathematics, pure or applied? The University of Oslo has a good offer to make. Mathematics is the basis for all of natural science, for economics, for statistics etc. The importance of mathematics and the need for skilled mathematicians is increasing in today's society. Modern mathematics is developed in symbiosis with its applications. Mathematicians in Oslo are interested in the pure and applied aspects, and many are involved in the Centre of Mathematics for Applications. This programme in mathematics is a two-year programme for those who want to study mathematics out of interest for the subject itself. We offer a wide range of courses on advanced topics in algebra, mathematical analysis, topology and mathematical logic.You will write a Master's thesis under supervision. You will have a choice between a short thesis written during the final term and a longer thesis on which you will spend about half of your time.
