Overview

About the programme

The research topic Mathematics and Applications at Blekinge Institute of Technology plays a key role in meeting our societal and sustainability challenges because it illuminates fundamental questions that are central to the theoretical understanding and construction of complex systems.

Within mathematics and applications, in-depth theoretical research in algebra, astrophysics, geometry and nonlinear dynamics is interspersed with strongly applied research with a focus on population studies in the field of health, as well as modeling of traffic networks. Mathematical modeling forms the core of the two latter sub-areas.
