• The opportunity to study under the program developed jointly with the University of Passau (Germany) and receive two master's degrees in two years of study at once: Majoring in Mathematics at the Higher School of Economics and majoring in Computational Mathematics at the University of Passau.
• Teaching in English and constant use of a foreign language allows each graduate of the program to gain competitive advantages in the global labor market.
• Close cooperation with the International Laboratory of Dynamic Systems and Applications, established within the framework of the Megagrant 220 project of the Government of the Russian Federation in December 2019. Active involvement of undergraduates in the work of the laboratory, participation in various grants.
• Exceptional opportunities for independent research work under the individual scientific supervision of outstanding scientists of Russia and the world. Participation in professional research seminars and international mathematical conferences regularly held by the Department of Fundamental Mathematics and the Faculty of Informatics, Mathematics and Computer Science.
• Modular learning structure that evenly distributes the workload and ensures constant monitoring of students' work.
• High professional level of teachers who work in various fields of mathematics and have high publication activity.
• Constant updating of the content of the educational program taking into account the development of science.
• Personal scientific contacts with domestic and foreign scientists. The team of scientists involved in the work of the Master's degree in Mathematics has personal close scientific ties with the staff of the Moscow campus of the Higher School of Economics and other universities in Russia. In addition, there is active cooperation with world leaders in the field of dynamical systems theory in Germany, Spain, England, France, USA, Holland, Brazil, Mexico, China.
