ALGANT Alumni Network

The ALGANT Alumni Network (AAN) is the alumni association of the ALGANT master programme. AAN was created in 2006 to create a vivid and active community of former ALGANT master students. Please check out their website for information about:

events organized by the association, for example SYMPAAN;
advertisements of open positions, both inside and outside academia;
a forum where ALGANT students and ALGANT alumni can discuss various topics, this includes both practical issues as mathematical topics;
keep track of everybody’s current occupation, interests and contact details by a small personal page everybody should keep updated. The idea is to promote contacts and exchanges.

Other Alumni Activities

Here are some frequently asked questions about the ALGANT Masters Programme. Click or tap the questions for their respective answers.

Am I eligible for an ALGANT scholarship or fee waiver?

All students with a bachelor in Mathematics or an equivalent academic study of at least 3 years with a special focus on Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory are eligible to apply for a scholarship and fee waivers. The selection of scholarship students is based on academic merit.

Graduation meetings

Sun, 21 May 2023 17:52:57 +0200

Past selection and graduation meetings

Every year, ALGANT has two consortium meetings: a selection and a graduation meeting.

After the application period for prospective ALGANT students, there are 4 weeks in which about 20 evaluators from the ALGANT partners rank all applicants. At the selection meeting a decision on the admittance of the students is taken.

Beginning and end of the academic year do not exactly coincide for all partners, but mid-July is the canonical date for the 3-day Graduation Meeting, where all graduating students give short presentations on their master theses during the first two days. The final day has the Graduation Ceremony.
