"I want my students to have a better understanding of the optimization algorithms after my course"

Darina Dvinskikh has been working at the Faculty of Computer Science since September. She has been hired via the tenure track programme. Darina told us how her choice of research topic for the master's thesis determined her path in science and where the Wasserstein barycenters can be useful.

"If you want to do something significant you should go through the theory of whatever you’re doing"

Hamidreza Behjoo graduated from the Statistical Learning Theory master’s programme with distinction. Currently, he is a PhD student in Applied mathematics at the University of Arizona. We asked him about his experience of the master’s programme, the courses he found the most useful, and his impressions of Moscow.
