Trial studies at the department of mathematics
The trial studies are an opportunity to get a first insight in the course of studying at a university way before the start of the study. The department of mathematics offers two options, the trial week and the trial studies.
Trial week
In the framework of the trial studies the department offers a half-day programme every winter semester. In the Winter Semester 2022/23 this is on Friday, the 3rd November 2023, from 8am to 12pm. For participation an application is necessary. Further information will be available on the following web site.
| Programme | |
|---|---|
| 08-10am | Interaktive Workshop: What is mathematics? |
| 10-11am | Visit of the lecture Control Theory |
| 11-12am | Information on the study programmes in mathematics |
Trial studies
In addition, there is the possibility to visit single courses during the semester. Visiting lectures needs no prior application, however we recommend to contact the dean of study affairs in advance, to check, whether the visit at the desired time is sensible regarding the contents of the lecture, and to possibly arrange an appointment for study advise. The campus map is available under the following link.)
If you are interested in studying mathematics in the winter semester the following lectures are suited:
- Analysis 1, Mo and We 10am-12pm in lecture hall N02
- Linear Algebra 1, Tue 10am-12pm in lecture hall N02 and Thu 10am-12pm in lecture hall N03
- Geometry, Tu 12-2pm and Fri 10am-12pm in lecture hall N02
If you are interested in studying natural sciences in the winter semester the following lectures for beginners are suited:
- Mathematics 1 for Biologists, We 6-8pm in lecture hall N02
- Mathematics 1 for Natural Scientists, We 10am-12pm in lecture hall N07 and Fr 8-10am in lecture halll N06
Furthermore, attending an exercise class or a proseminar might be interesting. These are two types of courses, taking place in small groups where the students take an active part. Because of this it is necessary to apply in advance and to arrange the visit with the supervisor of the course. If you are interested in visiting an exercise class or a proseminar you should contact the dean of academic affairs. Most exercise classes and proseminars are held in the afternoon.
In addition, there is the possibility to get an impression of courses in mathematics with the help of various online offers:
- Teaching videos for the lectures on Analysis 1 + 2
- Timms-Recordings of lectures on Linear Algebra 1
- Timms-Recordings of lectures on Analysis 1
- Timms-Recordings of lectures on Geometry
- Timms-Recordings of lectures on Mathematics 1 for Natural Scientists
- Digital learning material for the course Mathematics 1 for Natural Scientists
