Jacobs Semesters in Mathematics
Information for Participants
Jacobs Semesters in Mathematics invites international
undergraduate students to join Jacobs University for a study
abroad program in Germany. Program participants take mathematics courses together with our Bachelor
students. Furthermore, small classes allow for intense and personal
interaction between instructors and students.
With undergraduate programs in Mathematics as well as Applied and Computational Mathematics (ACM), and an
integrated Masters/Doctoral degree
program, Mathematics is a strong pillar of academic life at
Jacobs. In 2009, the Jacobs campus was home to the 50th International Mathematics
Olympiad and biennially hosts the International Summer School for Students with
participation of many leading international mathematicians.
Beyond their math focus, visiting students can take a broad
range of courses
across schools and majors. Being at Jacobs University means
living and studying in an English-speaking environment within a
thriving international community. Moreover, the program includes
the opportunity to study the German language and to take classes on
German politics and culture.
