This track utilizes mathematics as it applies to real-life situations and the high-tech Industry. By building a solid foundation in mathematics and its application to industrial and physical sciences, students completing this track will be well-prepared for a career in high-tech or graduate-level study in mathematics and other fields.
The first two years are devoted to studying introductory courses that are important for understanding modern uses of mathematics. The third year is chiefly dedicated to elective courses provided mainly by the Faculty of Data and Decision Sciences and the Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering, in useful mathematical topics, from the following tracks:
- Artificial intelligence and signal processing
- Research, optimization, and control of systems
- Mathematical modeling, computational methods, and statistics
- Mathematical methods in industry, economics, and finance
Scientific Precision Driving Real-World Innovation
The Applied Mathematics track at the Technion is designed for those who view mathematics not merely as a formal language of rigorous thought, but as a powerful engine for solving deep and complex problems across the physical, biological, social, and technological domains. This is a multilayered program that integrates theoretical depth with both analytical and practical thinking—while continuously developing modern tools of high relevance to high-tech industries, scientific research, and advanced decision-making systems.
Guiding Principles
At the heart of the program lies the understanding that modern mathematics does not exist in a vacuum—it functions as a sophisticated analytical arm in every field where there is a need to understand processes, construct models, predict behaviors, and optimize outcomes.
The track focuses on a wide range of advanced topics in applied mathematics, including:
- Computational and numerical methods for solving complex problems that lack closed-form solutions.
- Mathematical modeling of real-world phenomena in physics, biology, and society—including signal processing, flow dynamics, complex systems, and nonlinear dynamics.
- Advanced probabilistic and statistical analysis as a central tool for handling uncertainty and extracting insights from scientific and technological data.
- Optimization and mathematical algorithms, forming the basis for efficient systems, intelligent decision-making, and engineering of optimal solutions.
- Analytical and numerical methods for solving differential equations—both ordinary and partial—which lie at the core of many physical and engineering models.
