About the faculty


Leading in Diversity
The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences harbours a kaleidoscope of disciplines and research strengths. Our programmes in research and education range from nanomaterials and biomachinery to astronomy, from mathematics to pharmacy, from neurosciences to computer science, and from molecular and evolutionary biology to marine biology.
Our researchers pursue fundamental key questions while collaborating with partners from industry, the medical world and other realms of society. Frontline research groups explore new fields such as synthetic biologyand sustainable energy use.  
Education

The faculty's education covers three areas for which three schools have been created:

Graduate school of Science

The Groningen Graduate School of Science is part of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of the University of Groningen. Their main purpose is to provide an optimal training environment for all PhD students in the faculty. To this end, they organise courses in 'transferable skills,' coordinate and advertise courses offered by other graduate schools and research schools, provide practical information for PhD students, organise meetings and other networking activities, and provide a forum for discussion.
