This is the numerical analysis specialisation of the two-year, English-taught MSc in Mathematics at SDU Odense, dealing with computing approximate solutions to mathematical problems. Teaching mixes lectures, exercises and group work, and students have access to advanced digital tools and computing facilities, which matter for this focus. Study starts in September and February. The structure page names the specialisation but gives no course list, so the description draws on the title and the shared programme.
