Faculty 3 - Mathematics and Computer Science

Welcome

In Faculty 3, we are passionate about mathematics and computer science. Within the University of Bremen, our faculty is characterized by our great strength in research, which these sites provide detailed information about, including our research profiles, research groups, and members. Our research groups are very productive in their own right, but are also active in interdisciplinary research collaborations in all of the University's high-profile areas as well as in large collaborative projects. These include several Collaborative Research Centrers and Research Training Groups. Among the prizes and grants received by members of our department are an ERC Grant and Koselleck Project, as well as Heisenberg and Lichtenberg Professorships.

More information about the degree programs and courses offered by this wide-ranging faculty may be found by clicking on Studies & Teaching.

If you are interested in working with us, you will find more detailed information about research in Mathematics and Computer Science here.
