Details
Introduction
The Master's degree is established over two complementary years. The first year aims to create a common base of knowledge for all students wishing to pursue careers using mathematics. A teaching unit in this first year allows students to have a first contact with the professions envisaged. In the second year of the Master's program, students will be able to choose between teaching, industry or research.
Objectives
The aim of this master's degree is to offer a high level of training in pure and applied mathematics. The training provided in the Master's degree in Mathematics naturally opens the doors to a doctorate in pure or applied mathematics and allows the preparation of the agrégation in mathematics.
The Master contains several courses shared with the engineering schools PolyTech Clermont and ISIMA, which allows engineering students to complete their training and university students to approach certain aspects of the applications of mathematics. Working in a research and development department of a company is an additional opportunity. At the end of the training, students know how to solve a complex mathematical prolem using specific tools, methods and theories acquired during the training.

- Merit scholarship and application
-
The Graduate Track for Mathematics and Physics offers excellence grants to its students, up to 4,000 euros per academic year.
As part of its educational development policy, the University of Clermont Auvergne has set up a financial aid scheme for students enrolled in the Graduate Track for Mathematics and Physics.
This support is awarded according to criteria of academic excellence, motivation and quality of the study project. The grant cover the first year of the Master's program as well as the first semester of the second year, until the beginning of the internship, for a total of 16 months.
How to apply?
A specific application file must be prepared, in addition to the application file for the Master, which must contain the following elements- A curriculum vitae
- A letter of motivation presenting the study or research project and the reasons for your desire to come and study at the University of Clermont Auvergne in the framework of this program.
- Transcripts of your Bachelor's degree or equivalent diploma
- Two letters of support from teachers or people who have worked with you in an academic and/or scientific context

1st year of Master
Several teaching units are carried out in the form of projects. Thus, the 1st year includes a TER consisting of a bibliographical study aimed at elaborating a personal synthesis. The subject is proposed by a teacher-researcher of the laboratory. This activity ends with a written report and an oral presentation.
2nd year of the Master
The 2nd year internship, of a minimum of 3 months, is generally carried out in a laboratory, sometimes in private institutions such as Michelin or CEREMA for example. It involves writing an internship report and an oral presentation.
The internship is an initiative in mathematics research and consists of in-depth reading and synthesis of work on a specific subject. When the topic is applied to numerical analysis, for example, the internship may consist in part of the numerical implementation of an algorithm.
These training courses by and for research aim to familiarize students with the methods of working in an academic environment, in particular teamwork under the direction of an experienced mathematician, bibliographical research and the confrontation of ideas.

Target activities / attested skills
The Master's program offers numerous practical and experimental situations, in an approach to developing skills that includes the following aspects
- Initiation to research
- Linguistic and scientific skills (via a TER subject for which references in English are mandatory)
- Discovery of teaching
Further studies
The pursuit of a doctorate is a possibility offered by the Master. The measures put in place aim to encourage further studies and to diversify the thematic offer to meet the needs of the Laboratoire de Mathématiques Blaise Pascal.
The laboratory has 4 teams on various themes allowing each student to make his choice and apply for doctoral grants adapted to his professional project.
