Course description
Physics and mathematics form the bedrock of our modern knowledge-based society. Their strength lies in the power of abstraction and the precision of mathematical algorithms, coupled with the profound impact of logical induction. These disciplines, through processes of modeling and analysis in natural sciences and technology, underscore the importance of mathematics and theoretical physics as foundational pillars and key drivers of innovation in our civilization. In study programs like Applied Mathematics, Theoretical Physics, and Computational Science, students delve into these subjects, exploring their vast potential. The structural power of abstraction allows for the creation of models that simplify complex systems, making them easier to understand and manipulate. Mathematical algorithms provide the tools to solve problems efficiently and accurately, while logical induction offers a method to derive general principles from specific observations. These elements are crucial in fields such as engineering, computer science, and environmental science, where precise modeling and analysis can lead to significant advancements. For instance, in engineering, mathematical models help design safer and more efficient structures. In computer science, algorithms optimize data processing and problem-solving. In environmental science, modeling predicts climate change impacts and helps develop mitigation strategies. By studying subjects like Quantum Mechanics, Differential Equations, and Statistical Mechanics, students gain a deep understanding of the principles that govern the

Application Requirements
Document Requirements
If you want to apply for the graduate program please send the following documents: A one page statement of why you want to join the elite graduate program "Theoretical and Mathematical Physics" You high-school diploma (Zeugnis der Hochschulreife), in translation if appropriate Your bachelor certificate in physics or mathematics displaying your grades (alternatively: Vordiplomszeugnis and grades of subsequent courses or a recent "Transcript of records", if available) Curriculum vitae containing your current mailing address (both email and paper mail) as well as your date of birth and nationalities A letter of recommendation (should be sent separately by email or to the same address directly by the referee. Do not include it with your application. If your referee prefers to use encrypted email - this is optional -, the appropriate cryptographic keys can be found below) If available: GRE subject test in physics or mathematics (preferably sent directly to us, our Institution Code is 7263), required for applicants without a Bachelor's degree from within the European Economic Area (Due to the pandemic, in many areas GRE tests were cancelled. In this case, you can still successfully apply without a GRE subject test but please include it if you have it) If available: TOEFL, IELTS or comparable test Any other material you see fit
