Recognition of Prior Learning

At Bahcesehir University, full-time students can be exempted from some courses within the framework of the related bylaws. If the content of the course previously taken in another institution is equivalent to the course offered at BAU, then the student can be exempted from this course with the approval of the related faculty/graduate school after the evaluation of the course content.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates

The need for experts to analyze data gathered to gain appropriate qualifications in line with international standards and use these qualifications is increasing day by day in this new information age. For this reason, mathematical analyses have become an indispensable element for various industries. Graduates of Master's program may have the opportunity to work in a variety of departments of public institutions such as Turkish State Planning Organization,Turkish Statistical Institute, banking, insurance and finance sector, R & D and information technology departments of leading companies.The PhD program of Applied Mathematics and Statistics is prepared to gain its graduates a successful academic career in the departments of mathematics, economics, statistics and engineering in high quality universities and the ability of making scientific research in research institutions.

Access to Further Studies

The students graduating from this program may apply to post doctoral programs in the field of expertise.
