BA/BS in Mathematik

Mathematics at Ulm studies abstract structures and their properties, with the aim of understanding complex relationships and uncovering hidden patterns. The Bachelor programme introduces students to the questions that drive the discipline and to the tools needed to answer them through careful reasoning. Mathematics also supports the explanation of real phenomena in biology, medicine, insurance and information technology. The course suits students who enjoy abstraction, persistent problem solving and logical argument, and it provides the foundation for further study in pure or applied mathematics. Students learn that rigorous proof and clear definitions are central to the discipline. The programme develops the independence needed for further research and for applying mathematical thinking in a variety of professional fields. The course encourages precise written argument and independent work throughout the degree.
