Sabanci University

What you'll study

Study content reflects the research strengths of the Mathematics Group, covering both pure and applied topics. Areas included are:

• Analysis and its applications: subjects linked to functional analysis, several complex variables, complex potential theory, holomorphic dynamics, and complex geometry.
• Differential equations: including work on nonlinear partial differential equations and related analytical techniques.
• Probability and stochastic topics: martingales and broader stochastics studied in relation to analysis and applications.
• Operator and pseudo-differential theory: operator-theoretic methods and pseudo-differential operators in analysis.
• Algebra and number theory: finite fields, coding theory, cryptology, integer partitions, combinatorics, commutative and computational algebra, and finite geometry.
• Opportunities to pursue regular pure-mathematics tracks as well as joint projects with other university disciplines (for example computer science or economics).

Entry requirements

The minor is aimed at students admitted to Sabancı University's engineering and economics programmes. Specific departmental or credit requirements for enrollment are determined by the university and home faculty; consult the faculty administration for precise conditions.

Career prospects

A mathematics minor strengthens quantitative reasoning and analytical skills valued in technical, research and quantitative roles. Graduates can complement engineering or economics majors for pathways into areas such as quantitative analysis, research-led roles, coding and cryptology-related work, or further academic study in mathematics or allied disciplines.

Scholarships & funding angle (general)

Scholarship and funding options for students taking a minor depend on wider university financial aid policies and faculty provisions. Students should review Sabancı University's central scholarship resources and the funding opportunities available through their home faculty (engineering or economics).
