In the two years of the master's degree, one can choose specialization paths in various directions, particularly aimed at research, teaching, and applications of mathematics in technologically advanced areas.

The strengths of the Mathematics graduate are versatility, problem approach and reasoning skills, which he or she can apply even in non-mathematical areas to tackle the most diverse problems.

The course is divided into the curricula:

• General Mathematics: provides solid and broad skills in the traditional topics of mathematics, with acquisition of the relevant tools and methods of investigation, and initiates research in at least one of the areas of the discipline, with a preparation suitable for further studies (PhD or master's degrees both in Italy and abroad)
• Applied Mathematics: provides the basis for modeling and solving problems of applicative and technological impact by means of computational and statistical-probabilistic methods, within the framework of an interdisciplinary approach in which teamwork is also appropriately valued
• Mathematics Teaching: deepens knowledge of the mathematical-scientific method and its historical evolution, developing specific skills for communicating mathematical methods and problem solving and for teaching in secondary school.

Special emphasis is given to topics on which the Genoa course has an important tradition or has acquired new scientific skills. It thus ensures an advanced preparation that is constantly updated with the latest developments in the subject by preparing the natural fit into the work of the mathematician.

Graduates are required in companies and research centers to perform modeling-mathematical support, in the field of science popularization, and in public administration. They can also carry out mathematical teaching and research.
