[DMANET] New masters program

Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, one of the top Russian technical and science universities, announces International Master's Degree Program "Advanced Combinatorics". The program focuses on modern research topics, including Combinatorial Geometry, Extremal Combinatorics, Random Graphs and Hypergraphs, Additive Combinatorics. Moreover, the Program includes some important applied topics such as Game Theory and Analysis of Complex Networks. The latter is supported by the opportunity to practice with real-world big data at Yandex, the top Russian internet search engine.

University Campus is located outside Moscow, yet the city centre is only 22 minutes away by suburban train. Students will be offered complete coverage of living expenses.
