HGS MathComp - Where Methods Meet Applications

The Heidelberg Graduate School of Mathematical and Computational Methods for the Sciences (HGS MathComp) at Heidelberg University is one of the leading graduate schools in Germany focusing on the complex topic of Scientific Computing. Located in a vibrant research environment, the school offers a structured interdisciplinary education for PhD students. The program supports students in pursuing innovative PhD projects with a strong application-oriented focus, ranging from mathematics, computer science, bio/life-sciences, physics, and chemical engineering sciences to cultural heritage. A strong focus is put on the mathematical and computational foundations: the theoretical underpinnings and computational abstraction and conception.

HGS MathComp Principal Investigators are leading experts in their fields, working on projects that combine mathematical and computational methodology with topical research issues. Individual mentoring for PhD candidates and career development programs ensure that graduates are fully equipped to take up top positions in industry and academia.

To promote the community spirit within HGS MathComp, we have decided to host a regular get-together for all members (fellows, PIs, ...), the HGS MathComp Mixer. The next one will take place on April 29, 2024 at 12:45 in the Common Room. There will be a light lunch and beverages. The meeting will be informal and is meant for socializing and networking.

It would be great to see you at the mixer. Please feel free to share this invitation with other PhD and master students who might be interested.

See you at the HGS MathComp Mixer!
