Department
Mathematics in its dual role as a cultural assets with a millenia-old tradition and as a key technology of the 21st century has become an indispensable part of our modern world. At the Department of Mathematics and Scientific Computing, an international team of researchers covers this vibrant field in its full scope from abstract algebra to analysis, optimization, and numerical mathematics to the implementation on modern high-performance computers. Interdisciplinary research projects transfer mathematical results into practical applications such as characterizing complex biochemical structures or medical imaging. For those interested in studying mathematics, the department offers flexible Bachelor and Master degrees, structured doctoral programmes, and courses within a cooperative teacher training programme.
