We attach great importance to providing good support for students in every phase of their studies. The field of mathematics can be studied in its entirety with specialisation options in Mathematics, Engineering Mathematics, Business Mathematics, Data Science and Digitalisation. Final theses are written with a focus on fundamentals as well as in cooperation with companies in the automotive and logistics industries, software companies in the field of artificial intelligence, banks and insurance companies or other specialist disciplines.

Through the Erasmus programme, students had the opportunity to complete part of their studies abroad. In addition, the lecturers use their extensive international contacts to support study requests that cannot be accommodated by Erasmus.

Key areas of research are: Analysis and numerics of partial differential equations, optimal discrete structures and algorithms, stochastics, algebra and theory of numbers, didactics of mathematics. In some areas (e.g. mathematical optimisation and numerical mathematics), there are extensive third-party-funded projects with strong practical relevance, for example with the automotive industry, in the field of machine learning with applications in handwriting recognition or real-time control of fusion reactors, in long-standing cooperation with a regional AI company.

The institute is involved extensively in the promotion of pupils who are interested in Mathematics. In particular, for many years there have been projects for mathematics study groups and weekend courses organised by the Mathematics association Rho e.V.. It has a central position in pupil competitions, especially the Mathematics Olympics.
