Opening Colloquium with top-ranking international researchers
The new Cluster of Excellence „Mathematics Münster: Dynamics – Geometry – Structure” staged its opening event with a three-day colloquium. Fifteen distinguished international scholars from nine countries held specialist lectures, providing insights into their current research.
Opening Colloquium
Mathematics Münster: Dynamics - Geometry - Structure
June 20-22, 2019, Schloss Münster, Münster, Germany
The new Cluster of Excellence "Mathematics Münster: Dynamics - Geometry - Structure" celebrates its start. Just like the Cluster interconnects all of Münster's mathematics from pure to applied, the opening colloquium will cover a wide range of mathematics with excellent speakers. We would be delighted to welcome you in Münster on this event.

By plane:
The airport Münster-Osnabrück (FMO) is located 30 km from Münster. A bus service to Münster central station is available (45 min). The airport Düsseldorf (DUS) is further away, but offers far more international connections. The train ride to Münster central station is 90 minutes. Details about connecting busses and trains are available via bahn.de.
Public transport:
Münster is well connected by train. For details see bahn.de. Starting at central station, several bus lines lead to the Schloss. Best choices are probably bus routes 11, 12, 13, 22, leaving at central station from bus stop B1. Get off at bus stop Landgericht after about 10 minutes.
