About us

"Mathematics Münster: Dynamics – Geometry – Structure" brings together around 200 mathematicians from a wide range of mathematical disciplines, conducting research in Münster. Together, we form a dynamic and internationally renowned research community.

Since 2019, Mathematics Münster has been funded as a Cluster of Excellence at the University of Münster through the Federal and State Governments’ Excellence Strategy. The Cluster advances cutting-edge research by implementing integrated approaches to solve fundamental problems across various mathematical disciplines. These approaches combine different techniques, perspectives, or fields of expertise to address challenges comprehensively. Mathematics Münster is embedded in an excellent research environment and maintains close collaboration with several Collaborative Research Centres (CRCs) as well as interdisciplinary research centres.

Opening Conference: 2nd Funding Period of Mathematics Münster

16 – 18 September 2026

In Honor of Bernhard Riemann’s 200th birthday
The Cluster of Excellence 'Mathematics Münster' has recently obtained continued funding for its second term. Much like the cluster bridges the full spectrum of mathematics at Münster ‒ from pure to applied ‒ the conference aims to unite prominent international mathematicians, cluster researchers, and early career scholars.
