The It's Not Just Numbers podcast is aimed at anyone interested in maths, especially (potential) students of mathematics. Prof Marcello Seri and Anna de Bruijn from the University of Groningen interview personalities from the world of mathematics. In this episode, two former students from the University of Gröningen and Prof Max Lein from the University of Potsdam talk about their experiences in industry and how they mastered the transition. How did they find jobs? How did their studies prepare them for their work?
Immerse yourself in the art of measurement through various insights into the history, present and future of different measuring methods. From the ingenious methods of antiquity to modern findings - our exhibition shows how mathematical measurement methods are used.
Bring your smartphone and headphones for the interactive elements.
Location: Foyer, House 5, Golm Campus
Exhibition period: 05.02.2025 to 07.05.2025
15 outstanding young mathematical talents, including the Brandenburg team for the national round, met at our institute from 10 to 13 March to immerse themselves in the world of geometry, combinatorics and number theory.
In exciting lectures and while puzzling over Olympiad tasks, they not only deepened their knowledge, but also celebrated the fun of maths.
We are delighted to support this enthusiasm and wish them lots of fun and success at the national round in Göttingen!
