"Mathematical Economics" / Bachelor of Science

In the first two semesters, the mathematical foundations for all further lectures are laid with the two subjects linear algebra and analysis. In addition, you will receive an introduction to the two economic disciplines of business administration and economics. From the third semester onwards, you have the option of choosing between various lectures from the courses offered by the Faculty of Mathematics and the Faculty of Economics. The areas of theoretical and applied mathematics as well as economics and business administration must be covered. After the two subjects mathematics and economics are treated clearly separately from each other at the beginning of the course, the subject-specific delimitation becomes blurred with increasing duration of study.

Overall, the main focus of the course is on mathematics. A deepening of personal areas of interest in the field of economics and / or computer science is possible within the framework of the individual supplementary area. From the beginning of the course, great emphasis is placed on mathematical rigor and on the presentation of the relationship between theory and practice in order to make the importance of model-theoretical approaches to solving real economic problems transparent. The possibility of a study-related internship offers the chance for practical application of theoretical knowledge as well as an insight into potential professional fields.
