larger study modules with cross-semester exams; few examinations during the first year of study; summer school for first-year students; preparatory mathematics course for first-year students; introductory tutoring programme; small practice groups; mentoring programme for first-year students.

integrated study abroad and exchange programmes with the USA, Canada, France and Scotland; numerous partnerships with working groups and large research institutions in Germany and abroad.

In particular, the faculty strengthens research and teaching. The primary objectives of the effort to internationalise research are therefore the recruitment of excellent international academics and junior staff and the expansion and strengthening of international cooperation projects to promote networking. Specific objectives of the effort to internationalise teaching are the recruitment of motivated and high-performing international students and the funding of exchange programmes for students, lecturers and staff. Students are involved in international research cooperations of the work groups, the proportion of students of a class who take advantage of this option for exchange is about 35 percent.

Leading international groups at the faculty are researching the most exciting questions in basic research and are looking at the potential applications of the findings. A special plus factor is the intensive cooperation with foreign institutions of higher education in America or Europe, where students can complete parts of their Master's degree course without losing any time. We work closely with the Contact and Information Office for students with disabilities and chronic illnesses). The faculty supports academics in their career planning.
