Bachelor of Science in Mathematics

This study programme is the first step in the training of professional mathematicians. The methods, ways of thinking and content that all mathematicians should be proficient in are imparted in an intense and demanding programme. During the third academic year, students can attend advanced lectures that correspond to their interests and preferences. Thanks to close cooperation, courses at the Universities of Bern and Neuchâtel are also open to students in Fribourg.
The major study programme in Mathematics is supplemented by minors that students can choose freely from other university fields of study.
