The Master's Degree in Applied Computational Mathematics, taught entirely through distance learning, was designed to train professionals with skills in mathematical modeling, numerical methods, and computational implementation. Aimed at graduates in mathematics and related areas, the program combines theoretical and applied content, promoting problem solving in interdisciplinary contexts, using computational tools and simulation techniques.

Director(s) message

The growing complexity of scientific, technological, and social challenges requires professionals capable of combining rigorous thinking with computational skills. The Master's Degree in Applied Computational Mathematics (MMCA) was designed to respond to this need, training specialists capable of modeling, simulating, and solving real problems using mathematical methods and computational tools.


The program combines the theoretical depth of mathematics with the applied dimension of computing. This master's degree promotes flexible, demanding learning geared towards solving interdisciplinary problems. The online format allows students to manage their time autonomously, making it easier to balance professional and personal responsibilities without compromising academic quality and standards. Iscte's digital platforms provide a dynamic and collaborative learning environment.


Throughout the course, students will develop skills to:

  • formulate and solve complex problems through mathematical modeling and computer simulation;
  • apply numerical and statistical methods using programming;
  • integrate mathematical knowledge in applied contexts, such as data science, optimization, control, and complex systems;
  • develop independent research and propose innovative solutions in interdisciplinary environments.


The MMCA faculty is composed of professors and researchers with extensive experience in applied mathematics, computing, and distance learning, ensuring close and rigorous monitoring at all stages of the training program.


The Master's Degree in Applied Computational Mathematics provides an enriching educational experience, preparing students to actively contribute in highly complex scientific, technological, and industrial contexts.
