- Description/content
- Bielefeld University is one of the few places in Germany offering accredited Master of Science studies in mathematical and theoretical physics. With a long tradition in interdisciplinary research, the faculties of physics and mathematics cooperate closely in this programme, each responsible for about 50% of the teaching. It is possible to combine several of the existing key research areas, including condensed matter theory, cosmology, dynamical systems, elementary particle physics, mathematical physics, numerics, probability theory, stochastic and harmonic analysis. Both faculties are part of the Bielefeld Graduate School in Theoretical Sciences. In particular, this includes the International Research Training Group (IRTG) 2235 "Searching for the regular in the irregular: Analysis of singular and random systems", which is co-hosted by Bielefeld University and Seoul National University.
