Research at Department of Mathematics

Doing a PhD at the Department of Mathematics of the Faculty of Science is strongly intertwined with the research activities of the department. Candidates are expected to build up a broad general and very extensive specific knowledge in the chosen knowledge domain during and after their PhD. Performing research independently is another requirement. 
The Antwerp Doctoral School (ADS) helps PhD students complete the PhD process successfully and prepares them for their careers by means of tailor-made doctoral programmes. Read more...
