The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics<\/strong> degree program offers comprehensive and high-quality training in the fascinating world of mathematics. From the outset, students are introduced to the fundamental building blocks of mathematics: analysis, algebra, geometry, numerical methods, and stochastics. This broad foundation creates a deep understanding of mathematical relationships and enables students to analytically grasp and solve complex problems. Mathematics is often seen as a theoretical discipline, but in this program of study, practical relevance holds great importance. In exercises, students learn how to apply mathematical methods to concrete problems and put their theoretical knowledge into practice from the beginning of the program on. Small practice groups and dedicated teaching staff create a learning-friendly atmosphere and enable individualized support. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A special quality feature of the degree program is the close link between teaching and research. The lecturers at the Institute of Mathematics are internationally recognized in their respective fields of research and directly incorporate their current findings into the courses. This enables students to learn at the cutting edge of mathematical research and benefit from a research-oriented environment. In addition to algebraic geometry, topology, and number theory, the main areas of focus at the Institute of Mathematics include analysis, stochastics, and numerical methods, and even the subject of history of mathematics and the natural sciences has a chair here. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/jgu-base-section>\n\n\n

The standard period of study for this degree program is six semesters, divided into two phases. In the first academic year, lectures and accompanying practice classes teach the fundamentals of pure mathematics. For the most part, students design the second and third academic years themselves by choosing courses according to their personal interests. In addition to lectures, practice classes, and, possibly, internships, students also practice presenting more advanced mathematical topics from academic literature in two seminars. The most important component of the sixth and final semester is the bachelor’s thesis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further details on the study content and structure of the program of study can be found in the module handbook and in the examination regulations, which can be downloaded from our download center for mathematics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Three weeks before the beginning of the lecture period, we offer bridging courses in mathematics<\/a> to help all new students in the department refresh their school mathematics and to ease their transition from school to university. This is a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with the university and get to know fellow students who are also just starting their studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Learning Workshop is a service offered by our faculty that builds on this idea: During the lecture period, students can work on the weekly exercises together and support each other. There are also tutors present on site who can offer advice and assistance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/jgu-base-section>\n\n\n
