Description:

The theory of computation arose from concerns about the foundations of mathematics, and was developed in the work of Gödel, Church, Turing, Kleene and others. The actual building of computing machinery later was strongly influenced by this theoretical work. Computer science quickly grew into an independent field of study, but the relations with mathematics are still strong. Connections range from the use of mathematics to model the foundations all the way to the use of computers to help solve mathematical problems with a discrete component.

Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science: Something for you?

  • The programme has a unique theoretical and abstract focus that unites mathematics and computer science.
  • You can take part in the Mastermath programme, meaning you can follow advanced mathematics courses pooled by all Dutch universities.
  • The job opportunities are excellent: some of our students get offered jobs before they’ve even graduated and almost all of our graduates have positions within six months after graduating.
  • A majority of the courses are electives giving you the choice of how a strong an emphasis you want to place on mathematical or on computer science aspects.

What will you learn?

The Master’s specialisation places itself squarely in this exciting interdisciplinary area of deep theoretical developments. For this reason, the mathematics courses in this curriculum concentrate on algebra, general topology, logic, number theory and combinatorics. The computer science courses concentrate on formal methods, type theory, category theory, coalgebra and theorem proving.
