Message from the programme

Dear prospective student,

With this message we would like to welcome you to the Faculty of Science and Engineering (FSE) of the University of Groningen (UG). Please read this website carefully to have a good start of your BSc degree programme in 2025-2026. We are looking forward to welcoming you in September and hope you will thoroughly enjoy your studies in Mathematics or Applied Mathematics. 

Are you a bit uncertain about the choice between Mathematics and Applied Mathematics? Take your first year to find out what you like the most. The first year of both programmes is the same, so switching after the first year is easy.

To have a great start of your studies, we encourage you to join the Pienter Camp organized by the study association FMF from Friday the 29th of August till Sunday the 31st of August. Please find more information here and sign up as soon as possible!

We also strongly encourage you to attend all educational activities (lectures, tutorials, and lab sessions). This is the best way to build up a community with your fellow students and professors and it will increase your overall study success.

We wish you a pleasant summer, and hope to welcome you on the 1st of September!

Best regards,

Alef Sterk
