Course description
Mathematics and physics are deeply intertwined. Mathematics offers tools to tackle various physics problems. Conversely, advanced physical theories like quantum mechanics and string theory drive the creation of new mathematical concepts. This international program in mathematical physics bridges both fields, letting students enhance their math skills and collaborate in research teams. Participants can choose to concentrate on either math or physics. The program, taught in English, is a joint effort by the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Physics.

Please have a look at the Scientific Prerequisites on our website: https://www.math.unihamburg.de/en/studium/master/msc-mathematicalphysics/bewerbung.html • Current Transcript of Records with proof of the conversion of your final grade or your current grade average into the German grading system If you do not have proof for this, we recommend that you provide your current overall grade, as well as the highest and lowest grades that are considered passing grades at your university. You can also request this conversion at www.uni-assist.de if necessary. Grade conversions from the Zentralstelle für ausländisches Bildungswesen (Central Office for Foreign Education), the Zeugnisanerkennungsstellen (Certificate Recognition Offices) of the German federal states and APS certificates from the Akademische Prüfstellen (Academic Examination Offices) of China, Vietnam and Mongolia can also be submitted. • self-written list of your modules in “Mathematics for students of Physics” or equal and their credit points • self-written list of your completed modules in Advanced Mathematics and their credit points • self-written list of your completed modules in Theoretical Physics (in particular in Quantum Mechanics) and their credit points • Curriculum vitae • Short letter of motivation (about one page): What do you like about mathematics? What interests you most? What are you hoping to achieve in your course? • Proof of knowledge of the English language (see Admission Requirements)
