BACHELOR IN APPLIED MATHEMATICS STUDENTS PROJECTS

At IE University, we take the word “applied” in our program names seriously. The Bachelor in Applied Mathematics is built around a highly practical, project-based approach that goes beyond applying techniques or tools. Students are trained to understand problems first, translate them into mathematical formulations and then identify effective ways to solve them, using theory, computation and programming together.

Through hands-on projects, students work with real challenges from FinTech, artificial intelligence and industrial contexts, learning how modeling and optimization guide decision-making when problems involve trade-offs, constraints or uncertainty. Rather than relying on predefined methods, you'll develop the ability to build and adapt models, evaluate solutions and justify decisions mathematically. You’ll learn how to interpret reality through mathematics—by defining variables, assumptions and constraints before choosing the right method to solve a problem.

This way of thinking—combining depth, structure and application—sets the program apart and prepares graduates for impactful careers in industry or research.
