Mathesis

Norway’s doctoral school for the foundations of computational mathematics.

Courses, masterclasses and summer schools bring doctoral researchers together from across Norway.

Mathematics learned together.

Hosted by the Lie–Størmer Center and supported by the Research Council of Norway, Mathesis offers doctoral teaching with partner institutions across the country.

Courses with room for depth

Specialist courses and masterclasses connect pure and computational mathematics. Weekly online lectures and intensive meetings in Bergen and Tromsø make it possible to learn across institutions.

Time to work side by side

Summer and winter schools bring researchers together for lectures, problems and conversations. They offer time to follow an idea further with peers and visiting mathematicians.

Meet beyond your department.

Mathesis members work in algebra, geometry, computation, statistics and their applications. Courses and schools give them opportunities to meet and learn from one another.

Joining Mathesis

Membership is open to doctoral researchers at Norwegian universities and research institutes working in mathematics, statistics, computational sciences or a closely related field, with their supervisor’s support.

Associate membership is also available for eligible researchers in industry and the public sector, and doctoral researchers abroad who collaborate with Norwegian partners. The membership page explains the routes and how to get in touch.
