Seminar and Workshop Dates in the Summer Semester 2026
Registration for seminars and workshops for the summer semester 2026 will take place via the matching system. Information about the course offering can also be found in the matching system.
Seminars that are suitable for Lehramt NB (TUM SOT EDU) contain a corresponding note in the seminar description.
8 - 14 January 2026: students register via the matching system
19 - 25 January 2026: lecturers' selection round
ca. 27 January 2026: results are available in the matching system
The vacation seminar by the Hurwitz-Gesellschaft is also reognized as seminar within the Bachelor's program in Mathematics. More information on the vacation seminar can be found here.
How are Seminar Places allocated?
The allocation of places in the workshops and seminars takes place in two stages:
You register using the matching system during the current semester for one of the seminars or one of the workshops offered in the following semester. The supervising tutors make a selection from the list of applicants. In the matching system you can see in which seminar you have been allocated a place. Shortly before the start of the semester you will be registered for the exam and can then see the registration in TUMonline under your "registered examinations".
If you were not allocated a place in the matching or if you would like to take part in a second seminar, you can check in the matching system where remaining places are offered. The number of the respective remaining places is displayed in the list of courses. Please contact the lecturers of a seminar with remaining places and ask, if you may take part. If they agree, please email bsc-ma.asa(at)xcit.tum.de or msc-ma.asa(at)xcit.tum.de and cc the seminar’s lecturer to be registered for the Bachelor's or Master's seminar.
Presenting Math: Workshops for Bachelor Students
Workshops are offered on selected mathematical topics. Each participant presents her or his topic to the others in a short lecture, followed by group discussion. Regular participation in the workshop is therefore required. The workshop is part of the module Fundamentals of Mathematical Studies [MA0006] and is not graded. It is addressed to students who have completed their first semester.
Due to organizational reasons, there is only a restricted number of places available for registration. Please choose other topics, if necessary.
Students of other departments may only register for available places after the second selection round. In order to do so, please submit an informal application to bsc-ma.asa(at)xcit.tum.de.
- Dates: The workshops, including the lectures, take place in the first week of classes during the summer semester.
- Requirements: Analysis 1 and Linear Algebra 1
Seminars for Bachelor's and Master's Students
For each seminar offered to Bachelor's and Master’s students, there is a separate registration process in the matching system.
Bachelor's students should only register for Bachelor's seminars. For Bachelor's seminars, the competencies from the first two years of study are expected as a prerequisite, even if they aren't explicitly mentioned. Bachelor's seminars are therefore scheduled for students in their fifth semester.
Bachelor's students may also have counted the seminar of the Hurwitz Society towards their degree.
Places in the seminars labeled "Master" are generally allocated to Master’s students who are already enrolled in these degree programs. If you are a Bachelor's student who has already passed a Bachelor's seminar and would like to participate in a Master's seminar in advance, please note that you must check the “Master's seminar” box when registering in the matching system. If you do not check this box, you will automatically be registered for the Bachelor's seminar.
Important: It is not possible to have Bachelor's seminars recognized for the Master's program at a later date, even if your lecturer is willing to confirm that your seminar presentation was at Master's level.
Information for Students of "Mathematics in Data Science"
The seminar "Mathematics of Data Science" was specially developed for this specific degree program and is worth 5 ECTS. Should you prefer to attend an alternative seminar that is usually worth only 3 ECTS, you must complete additional work to earn 5 ECTS. Please discuss the details with the seminar lecturer.
