The Mathematics Faculty is part of the Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences, Mathematics and Computer Science. This leads to a close integration of our students in the relevant areas and ensures a high degree of flexibility in the choice of areas of application and areas of focus. Furthermore, during the first few semesters students can easily switch to our mathematics teacher training courses (for primary or secondary school), which makes it easy to change degree programmes or complete a dual degree.

This leads to a close integration of our students in the relevant areas and ensures a high degree of flexibility in the choice of areas of application and areas of focus. The master's degree in mathematics offers a free choice of electives, allowing students to select from the entire range of courses offered at the University of Trier.

For students of industrial mathematics and mathematics, the proximity to Luxembourg as a banking and financial hub offers excellent opportunities, especially for internships, but also for a later career entry. In addition, the University of Trier is a member of the University of the Greater Region and is thus optimally networked in Germany, France, Luxembourg and Belgium. We have double-degree agreements (e.g. with the University of Brussels) at the doctoral level.

The mathematics faculty has workstation computers for the students in sufficient numbers and equipped with the necessary software. The Alliance for High-Performance Computing Rhineland-Palatinate (AHRP) also provides access to modern high-performance computers.

The main research areas of the Mathematics department are analysis, numerics, optimisation and stochastics. Application-oriented as well as basic research and contacts to companies (both regional and throughout Germany). Current research projects: algorithmic optimization (DFG research training group), BMBF project "RODES": robust optimisation for the design of energy systems, BMBF project "ELAN": efficient local waste heat utilisation in low-temperature networks, contributions to the theory of statistical classification (Heinrich-Böll-St.), research group "Quantitative Finance & Risk Analysis".
