MathMods :: Joint MSc

This week we've invited our MathMods (Phd) students for some Christmas celebrations and to conclude with the current year. Our MathMods team was keen on baking cookies, cakes and sweets, some typical German and Italian Christmas sweets like Stollen (a sort of sweet bread), Lebkuchen and Parrozzo and the students tasted some hot punch - Glühwein (unfortunately alcohol-free :-( ). Professor Struckmeier was so friendly to bring two guitars for accompanying with Gabriel our brave students :-) while singing a few German and international Christmas carols. Thank you all very much for contributing to the success of our Christmas party! We wish our students and the MathMods teams all over Europe the very best for 2014, may the New Year bring you all health, happiness and joy. Merry Christmas from the Mathematics Department in Hamburg!

Congratulations to our current student Miriam Srokova, who has just been elected as PR (Programme Representative) at EMA (Erasmus Mundus Students and Alumni Association) for the current 2014/15 cycle of the MathMods Programme.

More information can be found here.

We're glad to announce that the application for the 2015/2017 batch of the MathMods Master's Course (and its related Erasmus Mundus scholarships) has just been opened.

Browse the Admission section to find detailed information and the link to the on-line application form.

Please note that some of the information on the scholarship page is still to be updated as we're waiting for the EACEA to confirm the number of scholarhips and special windows we will be assigned this year.

If you've got questions about how to apply, feel free to email us!

You are all invited (first and second years) in joining a Welcome-Day meeting organized by Aquilasmus, a student association part of ESN - Erasmus Student Network.

• Day: Wednesday, October 15
• Time: 3.30 pm
• Venue: Aula Magna, Department of Human Studies (city centre, see below for directions).

There will be a presentation of what the association does for international students (e.g. organizing parties, trips, international dinners, cine-forums...). 

Participants are also invited to give a short talk. As this is the first time that our Erasmus Mundus group has been invited to such event, we definitely need a volunteer (maybe from the second year) to make a presentation of what MathMods and Erasmus Mundus is.

You'll also be given a welcome pack, containing pens, notebooks, maps and the like.

In the end there'll be a buffet dinner, too!

As we really want all of you to take part in the event, we've cancelled all the classes scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Directions

City centre, around 100 metres from the big fountain (Fontana Luminosa) and the Castle.

There's an ARPA bus leaving our department at 2.15, then you'll just have to get off at "Questura" (police station) - it's the last but one stop before Terminal. But you can also get any AMA bus driving to Terminal or, better still, Fontana Luminosa.
