Values

Studies

The study programme is oriented to the application of mathematics by using information technologies

The study programme is oriented to the application of mathematics in various fields (finance, marketing, economics, computer science, materials and nano-technologies, physics, etc.), creativeness, and strong preparation in the field of computer science. Industry 4.0 without such specialists – out of place!

Skills

Excellent analytical thinking and creativeness

A good mathematician is able to solve a variety of problems creatively. Therefore, it is not surprising that KTU graduates are actively involved in the development of new products, technologies, and software. They predict, track data, and use it all to generate new ideas. Not only Lithuanian but also international companies are waiting for creative mathematicians.

Demand on the labour market

Increasing demand for specialists on the labour market

According to the forecasts of the labour market research agency, the demand for specialists, having deep knowledge of mathematics and analytical skills, as well as able to apply them in the development of practical skills will increase about 15-20% over the next three years.

Infrastructure

The studies are delivered by using the world-class mathematics software –SAS, SPSS, Matlab, Mathcad, R

SAS, SPSS, Matlab, Mathcad, and R are known as the best software packages for system modelling, analysis, optimization, and forecasting of the tasks solution. The students of this programme will solve actual tasks of application in mathematics by using this software.

Career

Extensive career opportunities

Abstract nature of the objects of mathematics and universal preparation opens wide career opportunities in various fields. Having completed the studies, the graduates work as system analysts, modelling and data analysis specialists, analysts-programmers, specialists of investigation of operations, logistics analysts, insurance and finance mathematicians in divisions of modelling, design, information analysis of various companies and institutions,  insurance companies, banks.

Career

A new generation of teachers for the new world

More than 700 new mathematics teachers will be needed over the next four years, according to a forecast from the Government’s Center for Strategic Analysis (STRATA). If you choose minor field studies in pedagogy during your studies, you will later be able to work not only in business, industrial organizations, or research institutions but also in schools. It is no secret that teachers with extremely strong subject knowledge and experience in working in interdisciplinary teams are especially valued.

Product and service development

Are you interested in creating real products and services while studying? It is now possible to test yourself by getting involved in a product development project (PDP). During the project, you will work in teams, collaborating with KTU researchers and social partners. While solving current, relevant problems you will improve your teamwork, project management, and problem-solving skills, deepen professional knowledge and expand your career opportunities.

The studies of Applied Mathematics provide strong career foundation for graduates. It allowed me to climb the career ladder, seek professional improvement, provided me with trust and a wish to move forward. The programme provided a wide freedom of choice – in addition to the mandatory objects, there was an opportunity to get deeper into other fields, for example, economics or insurance mathematics. Everyone can find his/her niche to improve and be pleased with his/her results. I greatly benefited from the thinking formed in the university, the ability to analyse the situation and find the optimum solution.

I first hear about applied mathematics at school, while choosing between informatics and economics studies. I am glad to have chosen this area. The studies cover both the basics of economic and informatics, importantly including knowledge of much more interesting areas - investment mathematics, life insurance mathematics, statistics, data analysis and so on. Combining theory and practice, the studies laid a strong foundation for logical thinking, modelling, and optimization. Studies taught how to employ basic tools, algorithms and programming in problem solving. The knowledge gained during the Applied Mathematics studies has always given an advantage over others.
