Special Topic Schools are intensive one-week seminars that provide early-career researchers at all stages with the opportunity to learn about new developments and fundamentally novel methods in a specific area of mathematics. 

Collaboration and networking are an important part of mathematical research. JRR are research workshops and other networking events organized by junior researchers for junior researchers from Bonn and other institutions.

To enable our early-career researchers to present and discuss their work at conferences and workshops world-wide, we provide them with a substantive, dedicated travel fund

Being a succesful researcher in math requires acquiring a variety of professional skills and competences that are the focus of these offerings directed at PhD students and Postdocs.

These workshops provide a platform for young women from a specific area of mathematics to present their research.

GME funds research stays - 1-4 months in length - at excellent mathematical institutions world-wide for our doctoral students.

This talk series within the Wednesdays Hausdorff Colloquium gives graduate students the opportunity to present and discuss their research.

During the annual 2-day poster session, all PhD students at BIGS showcase their current research to the math community in Bonn. The poster session closes with the traditional summer fest.

The University of Bonn offers a program of courses that enhance PhD students' leadership, management and networking abilities.

Every BIGS Mathematics student has not only their primary supervisor, but also a mentor. The mentors' role is to check on the students' progress and serve as an independent source of advice.

This program is designed to help young researchers to develop solid teaching skills with the support of an experienced professor. Within this program a postdoc and a professor plan a lecture or class together. Postdocs give at least half of the sessions each term and the professor provides them systematically with feedback and advice on their performance
