We are the FHNW's competence centre for mathematics and physics.
Every engineering and computer science activity is based on basic competences in mathematics and physics. Our main tasks include teaching these key areas of knowledge in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes at the School of Engineering and Environment and at the School of Computer Science.
We offer preparatory courses for students interested in studying computer science or engineering, which make it easier for them to get started at the FHNW and contribute to their academic success.
In addition, we solve problems for industry, business and society in research and service projects. This is also done in co-operation with other FHNW institutes and their own research activities.
How we support you
Our mathematics team is available to assist you with mathematical problems of all kinds. Mathematical tasks can therefore be addressed efficiently at our Mathematics Center.
The Physics Group is actively involved in applied research and development projects in collaboration with industry partners.
