The program combines interdisciplinary scientific knowledge from mathematics - especially >>> financial and insurance mathematics as well as stochastics and numerics - with economics and statistics. The skills acquired during the course of study should enable students to work independently, to critically classify and apply scientific results in the professional world, especially in the finance and insurance industry or in research. The demand of the economy for highly qualified, interdisciplinarily trained specialists with core competences in the field of mathematics as well as profound knowledge in statistics and economics is large and constantly increasing. The focus is therefore on teaching basic structures and techniques that enable the analysis and solution of mathematical problems in the finance and insurance industry. Career prospects are excellent due to the key qualifications acquired, such as the ability to abstract and analyze, organize complex issues and highly developed computer skills.
