Faculty colloquium

Faculty colloquium

The Faculty Colloquium offers insights into current developments in research in computer science and mathematics. The talks are intended for the entire faculty and do not require any specialized knowledge of the respective research area. The aim is to highlight the diversity and breadth of computer science and mathematics while fostering academic exchange across disciplinary boundaries.
