Совместная магистерская программа Erasmus Mundus по междисциплинарной математике (EMJMD InterMaths)

“InterMaths – Interdisciplinary Mathematics” is a 2-Year full-time Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree in Mathematical Modelling, with a special focus on biomedical Sciences and industrial engineering.

An Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) is a prestigious, integrated, international study programme, jointly delivered by an international consortium of higher education institutions, and funded by the European Commission.

EMJMDs award EU-funded scholarships (up to 49,000 EUR) to the best student candidates applying under annual selection rounds.

The study takes place in at least two of the universities involved.  InterMaths is in actual fact run by five European Universities:

• University of L’Aquila (UAQ) - Coordinating Institution
• Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH)
• Vienna University of Technology (TUW)
• Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB)
• University of Cote d’Azur in Nice (UCA)

“InterMaths” prepares for a career in research as well as in private enterprises, in particular in industrial engineering, manufacturing, pharmaceutics, biomedical industry. Our study plans develop mathematical skills that are relevant to a broad range of interdisciplinary fields:

• Mathematical modelling
• Scientific computing
• Control and optimization
• Stochastic modelling
• Image processing methods

Our programme is designed to meet the demand of advanced research in European enterprises and provides - at the same time - a unique, integrated, European advanced joint program in Applied Mathematics in line with innovative domains in science and technology.

Established in 1952 and ideally located in central Italy (L'Aquila being only 110 km away from Rome), our University is a public teaching and research institution offering a full range of academic programmes including biotechnologies, sciences, economics, engineering, education, humanities, medicine, psychology, and sport sciences. With 7 faculties, the University of L'Aquila offers its over 19,000 enrolled students 69 degree courses across the disciplines (both at undergraduate and postgraduate level, including international MSc courses entirely taught in English), 9 research doctorate programs, specialization schools, specializing-master courses, and vocational courses. Many members of its distinguished faculty of about 600 professors and researchers have received international recognition and are considered leaders in their fields of research.

Faculties

Our faculties promote, coordinate, and organize research activities for one or more sectors or scientific-disciplinary areas sharing the same objectives or research methodologies and promote, organize and carry out academic teaching within our University. The Faculties of the University of L'Aquila are the following: **Biotechnological and Applied Clinical Sciences | Civil, Construction-Architectural, and Environmental Engineering | Human Studies | Industrial and Information Engineering and Economics | Information Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics | Life, Health and Environmental Sciences | Physical and Chemical Sciences.

Other research structures

The University of L'Aquila has three centres of excellence (CETEMPS, DEWS, EX-EMERGE) and four research centres (CERFIS, CITRAMS, DMTA, M&MOCS). The University of L'Aquila is also responsible for running the Alpine Botanical Garden situated near the cableway on the Gran Sasso, which extends for 3000 sq metres and conserves plant life from the Gran Sasso, endemic central Apennine plant life, primitive alpine plants, plants originating from the Eastern Balkans and medicinal plants.

Research and teaching in Physics benefit from its associations with the underground nuclear physics Gran Sasso National Laboratory (INFIN - LNGS). There in the 1980s the National Institute for Nuclear Physics built beside the motorway tunnel through the Gran Sasso laboratories, where, protected by 1400 metres of rock, research in astrophysics, cosmology, nuclear physics and geophysics is carried out.

Professors and researchers of the University of L’Aquila have established links with the Gran Sasso Science Institute , an international PhD school and a center for advanced studies in physics, mathematics, computer science and social sciences located in L’Aquila.
