Master degree in Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory (ALGANT) University of Bordeaux

The ALGANT Master program provides a study and research track in pure mathematics, with a strong focus on algebra, geometry and number theory.

This track may be completed throughout Europe and the world, thanks to a partnership between leading research universities.

The ALGANT course introduces students to the latest developments within these subjects, and provides the best possible preparation for their forthcoming doctoral studies.

Program structure

The ALGANT program consists mainly of advanced courses within the field of mathematics and of a research project or internship leading to a Master thesis.

Courses are offered in: algebraic geometry, algebraic and geometric topology, algebraic and analytic number theory, coding theory, combinatorics, complex function theory, cryptology, elliptic curves, manifolds. Students are encouraged to participate actively in seminars

The university partners offer compatible basic preparation in the first year (level 1), which then leads to a complementary offer for more specialized courses in the second year (level 2). Each partner university offers a range of courses for the ALGANT program. For detailed information on the structure of the program in the different universities, please consult the partner university websites.
