The Department of Mathematics is one of the 8 departments of the Faculty of Science. It offers training in fundamental and applied mathematics at the Bachelor's, Professional Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral levels, spread over the university's various teaching sites and opening up a wide range of career opportunities: teaching, research, but also actuarial science, finance, management control, scientific computing, data analysis and modelling, data science, computer science, security, etc.
The Department of Mathematics is attached to theInstitut de Mathématiques de Marseille (UMR 7373 of the CNRS) and offers a very strong research component in fundamental and applied mathematics. It also maintains strong relations with theIREM of Marseille, notably through the hippocampe program. The masters degrees of the Department of Mathematics are also associated with theArchimede Institute.

Masters
The Department of Mathematics offers 2 Masters whose detailed contents are accessible below :
Since the start of the September 2018 academic year, the master's degree in mathematics applications has been separated into two mentions:
- Mathematics and Applications: Generalist training in mathematics, which provides the theoretical foundations and tools for careers in teaching, fundamental or applied research and mathematical engineering (R&D).
- Preparation for the Aggregation in Mathematics
- Fundamental Mathematics
- Computer Science and Discrete Mathematics
- Applied Mathematics CEPS
- Didactics of Mathematics
- Applied Mathematics, Statistics: Training focused on data processing based on multidisciplinary courses (statistics, computer science, demography, health, actuarial science, etc.) which opens up careers in statistics, mathematical engineering and applied research.
- Applied Mathematics and Social Sciences (MASS) - Population Analysis
- Mathematical Engineering and Actuarial Sciences (IMSA)
- Data Sciences (DS)
There are also two cross-disciplinary courses in several fields:
- Complementary Competence in Computer Science (all science majors except Computer Science)
- Computational and Mathematical Biology (Biology, Computer Science and Mathematics majors)
Registration fees:
In accordance with what is indicated on the UFR Sciences website, the registration fees for the master's degree are the same for foreign and French students, unchanged from the 2017-2018 year.
Scholarships:
For the year 2019-2020, we are likely to have M2 scholarships to fund students coming from outside and students from Aix-Marseille. To apply for these scholarships send a cv and your L3, M1 transcripts to the contact address indicated on the course page. You can also send a letter of recommendation to the same address.
Knowledge control procedures:
The MCC of the licenses and masters are listed on the page of MCC of the UFR sciences.
- Mathematics and Applications: Generalist training in mathematics, which provides the theoretical foundations and tools for careers in teaching, fundamental or applied research and mathematical engineering (R&D).
