* SP4: Mathematical Stochstics.

Teaching at the Faculty of Mathematics is research-oriented and at a high level with a large range of courses offered. The Faculty offers excellent opportunities for doctoral studies, for the most part third-party funded (for example in two research training groups and the doctoral programme). The Faculty of Mathematics takes a leading role in two interdisciplinary centres: the Centre for Informatics and the Centre for Statistics.
