The school consists of two areas: the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Computational Sciences and Engineering.
We strive to provide great flexibility in the last two years of curriculum, allowing students to explore their own interests, either within the school or in other disciplines of Yachay Tech.
All Yachay Tech programs start with a common core that is covered during the first two years. This includes a solid introduction to physics, chemistry, biology and geology. The third year consists of compulsory school courses, some of which are shared between departments.
The fourth year contains half in compulsory courses, and half of elective courses, and the fifth year includes an internship and a final project leading to a thesis.
PURE MATHEMATICS: Abstract Algebra *, Differential Geometry *, Complex Analysis, Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry, Operator Theory, Topology.
APPLIED MATHEMATICS: Continuous optimization *, Numerical methods for PDE's *, Optimal control, Operations research, Discrete optimization, Inverse problems, Financial mathematics.
HYBRID: Stochastic processes *, Variational calculus *, Theory of approximation, Harmonic analysis.
These subjects will be offered annually.
Of the ten professional electives, students must take at least three courses of pure mathematics and at least three courses of applied mathematics.
Hybrid electives can count as pure mathematics or applied mathematics. That leaves the possibility of taking at most four additional courses in MAT or in another discipline.

The School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences has two departments. One of them, the Department of Computational Sciences, offers the degree in Computer Science Engineering.
We strive to provide great flexibility in the last two years of the study plans, allowing students to explore their own interests, either within the school or in other Yachay Tech disciplines.
Every degree program at Yachay Tech starts with a common core that includes a solid introduction to physics, chemistry, biology, and geology. The specialization consists of compulsory courses of the school, some of them shared between the departments.
The fourth year contains half compulsory courses and half elective courses, and the fifth year includes an internship and a final project leading to a thesis or capstone project.
COMPUTER SCIENCE ENGINEERING: Concurrent Programming, Compilers and Languages, Functional Programming, Computational Geometry, Coding Theory, High Performance Computing, Scientific Computing, Computer Graphics.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Neural Networks, Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Intelligent Agents, Natural Language Processing, Intelligent Instrumentation, Data Science, Expert Systems, Stochastic Processes.
COMPUTER SYSTEMS: Web applications, Software security, Computational services administration, Computer security, Mobile and wireless networks, Cryptography, Image processing, Embedded systems, Specification and formal verification of systems.
