Research - Teaching - Excellence
The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Bonn offers researchers and students some unique opportunities in terms of education, academic and scientific diversity, and global networking. Whether it is performed in a laboratory, out in the field, at a computer or in front of a whiteboard, the work done at the faculty is interdisciplinary, forward-looking and extremely highly regarded on the international stage.
The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences is the only one at the University of Bonn to be divided into specialized departments called Fachgruppen (Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics/Astronomy, Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Biology, Pharmacy, Molecular Biomedicine).
