Our Meetings
We hold monthly meetings during the semester. These gatherings provide a relaxed atmosphere for networking, discussing mathematics, and sharing ideas. Each meeting features a different activity, such as:
- Get to know each other: Meet other participants in small groups.
- Tell me your math story: Interviews with women in mathematics, both within and outside academia.
- How to ... sessions: Practical advice on topics such as getting a PhD, explaining math clearly, developing communication skills, achieving a work-life balance, becoming a tutor, giving talks, conducting research, studying abroad, and more.
- Workshops: Learn about the gender gap in mathematics and the challenges related to diversity and inclusivity.
Each meeting concludes with a purely social time where we all have dinner together.
We encourage you to share your ideas with us! You can suggest possible math topics, guest speakers, workshops, and social activities through this link.
We look forward to receiving many ideas from you, so we can plan our future meetings according to your preferences!
Next Meeting
Tell me your math story!
November 28th, 6pm, M104
After a very successful career panel in the summer term 2024, we decided to re-organize it also this semester. This time, we invited
- Luise Blank (Universität Regensburg)
- Veronika Wanner-Seidl (Hochschule Landshut, previously at Dallmeier)
- Maximiliane Weishäupl (PhD student in Cryptography at Universität Regensburg)
We hope that you are as excited to hear their math stories as we are!
Please register and order your pizza via this form .

Winter term 2024/25
October 30th:
Let's get to know each other!
We started the semester with an informal meeting dedicated to getting to know each other. At the beginning we introduced the group and talked about our plans for the upcoming semester. Then we came together in small groups to talk about math and personal stories while eating pizza.
Summer term 2024
April 22nd:
Let's get to know each other!
At our first meeting, we got to know each other better by sharing our math interests and personal stories over dinner.
The program included a group presentation, introductions, and a shared meal, all in an engaging and inviting atmosphere.
May 27th:
Tell me your math story!
At our second meeting, we hosted a panel with three women mathematicians —Clara Löh, Kerstin Blomenhofer, and Birgit Sommer— who shared their career experiences in mathematics.
Attendees had the chance to ask questions about life after studies and stayed for dinner afterwards.
July 6th:
Social Hike to Walhalla
We enjoyed a short hike to the Walhalla, where we shared a picnic and got to know each other in an informal setting.
Everyone brought their own food, making for an enjoyable and relaxed meeting.
July 11th:
Gender, diversity and inclusive teaching
We ended the first semester of Women in Mathematics with a workshop led by Dr. Birgit Bockschweiger on gender, diversity, and inclusive teaching. Following the interesting session, participants stayed for dinner.
