The Berlin Mathematical School is the graduate school of the Cluster of Excellence MATH+ (www.mathplus.de) and a joint endeavor of the mathematics departments at the universities in Berlin: Freie Universität (FU), Humboldt-Universität (HU) and Technische Universität (TU). We offer an excellent doctoral program taught in English in a broad and active research environment together with mentoring programs, language courses, soft-skills seminars, funding for summer schools and conferences, a buddy program and funding for students with children. Committed to equality and diversity.

“Mathematics as a whole“ is a leading principle of the BMS. Its focus encompasses fields that are traditionally termed “pure“ or “applied“ mathematics, though we prefer not to make that distinction. Instead, research topics are grouped into eight parts, each covering a broad, but coherent, part of mathematics:

For applicants with a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent, Phase I offers a basic graduate phase of 3-4 semesters completed with a Master’s degree. Phase II is the research phase. It lasts 3-4 years in which candidates conduct specialized research and can attend advanced courses and conferences.

Deadlines:

The BMS application period consists of two rounds:

Phase I applicants who require a Phase I scholarship need to apply in the first round.
Phase II applicants can freely choose in which round to apply.

Any applicant can only apply once per application period for admission to the BMS.
