Course units

Depending on the major you will choose, whether Data Science or Mathematical Informatics, you will be able to choose your courses units:

In the first semester:

• 1 Humanities course (English, communication)
• 5 courses within your major
• 2 courses within your minor

In the second semester:

• 1 Humanities course
• 1 Research embedding course (initiation to research, project in a laboratory, conferences, summer school…)
• 5 courses within your major
• 1 course within your minor

In the third semester:

• 1 Research embedding course
• 5 courses within your major
• 1 course within your minor

In the fourth semester, you will have to:

• Attend 1 Research embedding course
• Do an internship

As a student of the Grad’School following the master’s degree of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, you will attend Data Sciences courses as your major, and Mathematics courses as your minor.

In Caen, the Mathematical Informatics major offers the following courses:

• Exploratory data analysis
• Machine learning
• Artificial intelligence
• Imaging science & computer vision
• Mathematical modelling
• Partial differential equation
• Optimisation
• Digital analysis and scientific calculus

Besides, during the first 3 semesters of the master’s degree, you will attend other courses within the Grad’School programme, in Mathematical Informatics mostly, as well as transversal courses:

• English
• Communication
• Conferences
• Introduction to scientific research methods (2nd semester)

In the 4th semester, a supervised project will complete your training.
