Joint mathematical colloquium of the universities of Marburg and Giessen
Since 2011, the UMR Department of Mathematics and Computer Science and the Mathematical Institute of the Justus Liebig University Giessen have held a joint Mathematical Colloquium once a semester in a particularly festive setting, which is intended to appeal to a broad audience of students and staff from both institutions. Traditionally, it takes place in the following rotation:
- summer semester in Marburg , HS IV in Mehrzweckgebäude at Hans-Meerwein-Str. 6, Campus Lahnberge
- winter semester in Giessen, lecture hall of the Mathematical Institute, Arndtstr. 2, 35392 Giessen, Germany
There is always an after-session afterwards, which provides further opportunities to meet.
