Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme
From the beginning, small group supervision in student-led tutorials for lectures. In later semesters, good professor-student ratio. In addition to frequently represented areas, there is also a focus on mathematical logic. Substantial elective options in the BSc and MSc degree programmes. Significant teaching crossover (including logic taught in computer science and philosophy). Own (small) department of didactics for mathematics.
Special features regarding teaching in the master's programmes
Good professor-student ratio. Specialisation in all areas of focus is possible, including through flexible opportunities for supervised self-study ("reading courses") in the curriculum. Rotating selection of special lectures, in particular by post-docs. Inclusion of professors from mathematics fields by special arrangement.
Special features regarding the international orientation
Erasmus exchange with 17 universities. Freiburg is part of the tri-national EUCOR network of Upper Rhine universities (including Basel and Strasbourg), which makes it possible to complete courses at all participating universities. Freiburg is part of the multinational Epicur network.
Exchange universities for stay abroads
Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon, Frankreich; Trinity College Dublin, Irland; Helsingin Yliopisto, Finnland; Université Paris Diderot, Paris 7, Frankreich; Universitetet i Bergen, Norwegen; Università degli Studi Roma Tre, Italien; Universitat de Barcelona, Spanien; Orta Dogu Teknik Üniversitesi, Türkei; Göteborgs Universitet, Schweden.
Special features regarding the equipment
