Master in InterMaths Erasmus Mundus Joint Master

Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH), established in 1978 and based in Harburg, Hamburg, combines rigorous engineering education with a clear research orientation. The university’s motto, Technology for Humanity, guides teaching and research towards sustainable technological solutions. With a community of roughly 7,700 students including nearly 2,000 international peers, TUHH fosters an interdisciplinary approach that links basic research, applied projects and technology transfer.

Academic offerings emphasize engineering, natural sciences and applied research, supported by strong collaboration with industry and regional partners. Small class sizes, project-based learning and access to research groups allow students to engage closely with supervisors and practice-oriented initiatives. The university’s structures encourage entrepreneurship, spin-offs and participation in innovation networks that bridge campus activity and industrial application.

International students are integrated through dedicated services, exchange programs and English-language course options at postgraduate level. TUHH’s focus on sustainability and human-centred technology delivers clear career pathways in engineering, consultancy and research. Campus life in Hamburg provides cultural diversity, strong transport links and proximity to Germany’s dynamic industrial and maritime sectors, enhancing opportunities for internships and employment.

The InterMaths Erasmus Mundus Joint Master is a two-year program designed for students interested in advanced mathematical modeling and scientific computing. This program is ideal for those who thrive in an international environment and seek to develop interdisciplinary skills. Students will study at multiple partner universities, including L'Aquila, Hamburg, and Vienna, gaining a unique perspective on applied mathematics.

In the first semester, students will focus on the Foundations of Applied Mathematics in L'Aquila, covering essential topics such as functional analysis and dynamical systems. The second semester offers specialized training in Numerical Modeling at either Hamburg or Vienna. The curriculum is designed to equip students with practical skills and theoretical knowledge, preparing them for real-world challenges in various fields.

Graduates of the InterMaths program can pursue careers in research and development, particularly in industrial engineering, pharmaceuticals, and the biomedical industry. Job titles may include Research Scientist, Data Analyst, and Mathematical Modeler. The program also prepares students for PhD opportunities, allowing them to further their studies in mathematics and its applications globally.
