Tips for starting your studies
- Mentor:innen program at the Faculty of Mathematics
We, the Faculty and the Faculty Student Council, support you with the Mentor:innen program at the start of your studies. As part of the program, you can join a mentee group right at the start of your studies, which is supervised by a student from a higher semester.
You can find all information on the mentoring program, in particular on registration, the kick-off event and the workshop series on the Mentoring Program website. -
gOPAL
What is a module, a preliminary examination, selma, OPAL, ...?
Studying can be quite complicated, the course content put aside. To help you keep an overview at all times, we offer you gOPAL, a personal study navigator to guide you through the first two semesters.
If you are studying for a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics or Business Mathematics, you will find"gOPAL Mathematics" to be a tailor-made electronic companion. This course also offers interesting information and tips on studying for a teaching degree in mathematics.
However,"gOPAL Lehramt" offers you tailor-made information on the complex teacher training course.
(OPAL = Online Platform for Academic Learning and Teaching [Online-Plattform für Akademisches Lehren und Lernen]) -
