Mathematics MSc

One of the main features of the program is the great variety of courses, covering several areas of mathematics. Our graduates will have a broad knowledge in many areas of mathematics. Besides offering introduction and basic foundation in many areas, some of the subjects lead to up-to-date research results.

Most of the teachers of the program have international teaching experience and they regularly give classes also at foreign universities, including North American institutions. Young mathematicians, bringing in freshness and new momentum, are also involved in the program. Our instructors all have scientific degrees and good research record. Examples show that graduating from our program is a very good starting point for doctoral or (at a later stage) postdoctoral studies.

Of particular interest is the fact that many researchers in the internationally renowned Hungarian school of combinatorics have started their career at our university and many of them still have position at  the Institute of Mathematics. For example, the Wolf Prize and Kyoto Prize winner Prof. László Lovász, who is also the winner of  the Abel prize for the year 2021, is a professor at our university. Another recent Abel prize winner, Prof. Endre Szemerédi is also a graduate of our school. But one could also recall the Ostrowski Prize of Prof. Miklós Laczkovich (professor of our university), the Gödel Prize of Prof. László Babai (former professor), the Coxeter Prize of Prof. Balázs Szegedy (a graduate of our university) etc.
