Mathematics

Mathematics serves as a bridge between theory and real-world problems. By model construction, numerical computations, and data analysis, it provides essential tools for addressing complex challenges in science and engineering. This program aims to help students build a knowledge framework in applied mathematics and understand its critical role from foundational theory to cutting-edge technologies and financial analysis. The curriculum covers core areas such as mathematical modeling, scientific computing, optimization algorithms, and data science with Python. It also delves into specific applications of statistics, optimization theory, and other methods in quantitative finance, AI, and cryptography. Leveraging the academic resources of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, the program includes university workshops and laboratory visits, as well as trips to relevant technology enterprises. By integrating theory with practice, it guides students in exploring the broad prospects and professional pathways in mathematics.
