Program Objectives:

Within the mathematics subprogram, Hessen International University aims to cultivate students’ critical scientific thinking while providing them with the necessary subject-specific knowledge, skills, and methods required for their future profession.

Through subject-specific studies, students will develop a comprehensive understanding of mathematics that will shape their approach to teaching the subject in various school settings. This equips them with the autonomy needed for effective subject-specific instruction.

In the subject didactic studies, students will gain crucial insights into the connections between mathematics and mathematics teaching. They will also delve into the dynamics of learning mathematics and effective methods of delivering mathematics education tailored to individual students.

Study Tips:

Mathematics courses primarily take place at the AVZ (Heinrich-Plett-Str.) in Oberzwehren.

Most mathematics lectures conclude with a certificate of accomplishment achieved through written examinations. Regular homework assignments serve as prerequisites for admission to these exams.

Participating in mathematics pre-courses is highly recommended. Further details about choosing preliminary courses are available on the Institute of Mathematics’ webpage.
