- didactics of mathematics ;
- partial differential equations and numerical analysis ;
- p-adic Hodge theory and arithmetic geometry ;
- computability and model theory ;
- verification and game theory ;
- formal methods and artificial intelligence;
- linear chaos in infinite dimension ;
- stochastic processes and applied probability ;
- operations research ;
- theoretical physics ;
- theoretical computer science ;
- databases ;
- software engineering.
Access conditions

Target audience
The Research focus is intended for those who wish to study a mathematical subject in greater depth, in particular those who wish to pursue a PhD in mathematics.
Program and structure
In addition to taking advanced courses in your field of specialisation, students will develop their skills as future researchers by learning and presenting new subjects, solving problems, discussing with team members, etc. The Master’s programme is very flexible and the activities are defined in consultation with the students in order to ensure that they achieve the best possible results.

Teaching profile
The programme description defines the expected learning outcomes at the end of the cycle (Bachelor's, Master's, etc.). The programme description defines the expected learning outcomes, i.e. what the student should know, understand and be able to achieve at the end of a learning activity, a teaching unit or a study cycle (Bachelor's, Master's, etc.). Learning outcomes are defined in terms of knowledge, expertise and soft skills.
At the end of the course, students will be able to:
- Use their acquired professional skills according to the objectives of the degree programme
- Demonstrate a high level of integrated mathematical knowledge
- Carry out large-scale projects
- Carry out large-scale projects
- Communicate clearly
- Adapt to different contexts.
For more information, consult the programme description for this study cycle below (in French).
Opportunities
The natural next step is to do a PhD and then pursue a career in academia or in a leading industrial or financial research laboratory.
