This is the Research Track aimed at students who wish to acquire a profound knowledge of one of the areas within pure mathematics. There is a strong theme dealing with algebra and number theory (viz. the international ALGANT study programme), as well as a strong theme dealing with topology and geometry. Leiden offers courses at an advanced level ranging over topics such as algebraic number theory, algebraic geometry, cryptology and combinatorics. Some of the courses are obligatory, but there is a large amount of freedom to choose for one’s own topic. Some of the courses are given at a national level. The programme ends with the preparation of a Master Thesis..
