Berlin Mathematical School (BMS) - Get Your Math PhD in Berlin
Website: http://www.math-berlin.de/application

The Berlin Mathematical School is the joint graduate school of the mathematics departments at the three major universities in Berlin: Freie Universität, Humboldt-Universität and Technische Universität.

We offer an excellent (post)graduate program taught in English in a broad and active research environment. This is complemented by our mentoring program, language courses, soft-skills seminars, travel support for summer schools and conferences, and special funding for students with children.

Our seven main research areas are:

* Differential geometry, global analysis and mathematical physics
* Algebraic and arithmetic geometry, number theory
* Probability, statistics and financial mathematics
* Discrete mathematics and combinatorial optimization
* Geometry, topology and visualization
* Numerical mathematics and scientific computing
* Applied analysis and differential equations

The graduate program starts with three to four semesters of course work
(Phase I) leading to a master's degree. This is followed by four to six semesters of thesis research (Phase II) leading to a doctoral degree at one of the three universities.

Students who will have completed their bachelor's degree by October 2016 can apply to Phase I; those who will have completed their master's degree by this date can apply to start directly in Phase II.
