On the 15 January 2020, the research groups of the Institutes of Mathematics and Statistics gave an insight into their current research. Interested students were also given an overview of which topics are suitable for a bachelor or master thesis.
The student representatives provided coffee and cake, so that discussions on research, course offerings and curriculum could be held in a pleasant atmosphere even after the event.
