At the Math Talent School 2026, 18 female students explored fascinating topics in probability, data analysis, and optimization. At the same time, they gained valuable insights into studying mathematics, mathematical research, and career opportunities in the field.

From June 23 to 27, 2024, 23 female students from MINT-EC schools had the opportunity to participate in the MINT-EC Girls Camp. There, they learned what applied mathematics means and worked on practical projects in workshops. Among other things, they explored the topology of water supply systems and the optimal location planning for rescue stations.

Dynamic systems often exhibit complex behavior. In his lecture, Prof. Dr. Oliver Junge from the Technical University of Munich presents mathematical concepts from geometry, topology, and functional analysis for characterizing this behavior. Models from chemistry and oceanography are examined, with numerical methods also being used.

The director of the Fraunhofer ITWM, Prof. Dr. Anita Schöbel, and Prof. Dr. Jürgen Franke from the RPTU have jointly published the book “Statistical Machine Learning for Engineering with Applications,” which offers a comprehensible introduction to the concepts of machine learning. In this interview, Prof. Dr. Franke explains the special features of the book.
