Seminar

Each semester we have our weekly seminar. Talks are given by members of our math department, reporting on their recent research and guests of our research groups. Since the foundation of the Mathematical Institute for Machine Learning and Data Science, there is a seminar in Ingolstadt as well as one in Eichstätt.

Everybody is welcome to join!

Information, topics and contact persons of the seminar can be found here:
