Industrial & Applied Mathematics - TU Eindhoven

What am I learning in Industrial & Applied Mathematics (IAM) in TU Eindhoven now ?
I am one of the students who got ASML scholarship in 2007. My specialization in IAM is Statistics, Probability and Operation Reserach. Let's have a look some courses in IAM, not only in my specialization but also another specialization.

There are three specialization in IAM which are Statistics Probability & Operation Research (SPOR), Discrete Mathematics & Applications (DMA) and Computational Science & Engineering (CSE).

In SPOR, we will learn many courses related to stochastics procesess, queueing system, integer programming, random graph and nonparametric statistics. In DMA, we will learn about coding & crypto, cryptographic protocol, liniar and bilinear algebra, graph and algorithm. The last one is CSE where we can learn courses related to scientific computing, partial differential equation, continuum mechanics. numerical programming and applied function analysis.

Besides those compulsory courses, students can also choose the elective courses such as applied statistics, optimization, stochastic differential equation, advanced modelling, system & control, stochastic decision theory, design experiment and any other interesting courses.

Most of the master project for IAM students will be taken place in company during the last 7-8 months of the study. Most of the students will be paid 300-500 euros per month during that period.

Another advantage you can get if you apply to this major is that there is an opportunity you will be granted ASML or Oce scholarship which consist of 2-year scholarship and 3-year working in high-tech job in their company. Is that interesting, isn't it ? :D
