Our Teaching

The Institute of Analysis and Scientific Computing gives courses for Bachelor, Master and Doctorate Technical Mathematics at the TU Wien.

Furthermore, we are actively involved in the basic mathematics education of all study programs with the Harmonisation Course Mathematics as well as in the service teaching for Technical Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computational Science in Engineering and Interdisciplinary Mathematics.

Overview of teaching at ASC

Courses for technical mathematics

Main topics are:

  • Analysis, Introduction to Programming, Functional Analysis, (Partial) Differential Equations, Numerical Methods and Simulation.

A detailed list of all courses and lecturers can be found here.

Service Teaching

Fields of study:

  • Technical Physics, Electrical Engineering, Geodesy and Geoinformation, Computer Engineering, Computational Science in Engineering.

A detailed list of all courses and lecturers can be found here.

Every year before the beginning of the winter and summer semester, the institute offers the so-called Angleichungskurs Mathematik (AKMATH) to prepare the required mathematical basics for students of all fields of study.

Further information can be found on the AKMATH website. If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Andreas KÖRNER.

We are also involved in the international MSc course „Interdisciplinary Mathematics“, opens an external URL in a new window, which is jointly offered together with the Università degli Studi dell’Aquila (Italy), the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Spain), the University of Côte d’Azur at Nice (France), and the University of Hamburg (Germany).

Starting with the study year 2021/22 this MSc program will be supported by the EU via the Erasmus Mundus program, opens an external URL in a new window.

Furthermore, members of the institute are actively contributing to TUForMath, opens an external URL in a new window (head: Prof. Dr. Dirk PRAETORIUS, opens an external URL in a new window), a popular science initiative of TU Wien jointly founded in 2018 by Prof. Dr. Joahnnes BÖHM, opens an external URL in a new window, Prof. Dr. Michael DRMOTA, opens an external URL in a new window, Prof. Dr. Alexia FÜRNKRANZ-PRSKAWETZ, opens an external URL in a new window, and Prof. Dr. Dirk PRAETORIUS, opens an external URL in a new window, that provides "hands-on" fun mathematics for pupils and shows the impact of mathematics on science and engineering as well as, perhaps less expected, on arts and culture, society and economics, and our daily life.

Every semester almost 30.000 students take more than 2.000 lectures at TU Wien. TU Wien is dedicated to giving its students the best possible education. With the Best Teaching Awards, opens an external URL in a new window that have been introduced in 2017, TU Wien puts the spotlight on staff who particularly excel in this goal by awarding them with the Best Teacher Award or the Best Lecture Award.

We are proud that at the Faculty of Mathematics and Geoinformation all recipients of the Best Teacher Award were members of our institute. Many students participated in these award selection processes, and we thank them for this sign of esteem of our dedication to good teaching.
