The study of Mathematics opens a variety of doors for a career in business, industry, education or science. The University of Potsdam offers students interested in Mathematics a diverse, research-oriented course of study with numerous links to research centers outside the university. Information for pupils and schools can be found here and further information on studying here.
There are currently 20 professors at the Institute of Mathematics in Potsdam. Their research groups represent a broad spectrum of current research directions in Mathematics. Members of the institute coordinate a Collaborative Research Center (SFB 1294) and are part of the steering committee of a Priority Program (SPP 2026) both financed by the German Research Foundation DFG.

Once again this year, the University of Potsdam opened its doors for the regional round of the Maths Olympiad. Around 260 talented pupils took on challenging tasks on 13 November to demonstrate their mathematical skills and qualify for the regional round.
By organising the Mathematical Olympiad, the Institute of Mathematics and the University of Potsdam are making an important contribution to promoting mathematical education in the region and awakening a love of mathematics in the participants.
The award ceremony will take place on 17 January 2025 in the Audimax.
The Israel Institute of Advanced Studies has approved the joint application by Prof Dr Matthias Keller (Potsdam) and Prof Dr Jonathan Breuer (Jerusalem) for a research group on the topic of "Analysis, Geometry and Spectral Theory of Graphs". This programme finances the research stay of 8 scientists from September 2025 - June 2026 at the IIAS in Jerusalem. Among the invited researchers are Dr Siegfried Beckus (Potsdam) and Prof Dr Ram Band (Haifa), who is currently a visiting researcher at the UP.
The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Potsdam has awarded Prof. Dr. Raum for his outstanding teaching in the field of "Algebra" on the Bachelor's degree course in Mathematics. The students appreciate his structured courses, the continuously improved lecture notes and his patient, helpful supervision. Prof. Dr. Raum creates a productive and error-friendly working atmosphere through appreciative communication, which significantly promotes learning. We are delighted about his award and thank him for his commitment. You can find more information here.
