Universiteit Utrecht
A better future for everyone. This ambition motivates our scientists in executing their leading research and inspiring teaching. At
Utrecht University, the various disciplines collaborate intensively towards major
strategic themes. Our focus is on Dynamics of Youth, Institutions for Open Societies, Life Sciences and Pathways to Sustainability.
Sharing science, shaping tomorrow.
Working at the Faculty of Science means bringing together inspiring people across disciplines and with a variety of perspectives and backgrounds. The
Faculty has six departments: Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Information & Computing Sciences, Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Together,
we work on excellent research and inspiring education. We do so, driven by curiosity and supported by outstanding infrastructure. Visit us on

Within the Faculty of Science and across Utrecht University, we deeply value the contributions of every employee, recognizing that each person's efforts are essential to achieving our shared mission. Our
Recognition and Rewards (R&R) philosophy is central to how we value each individual's contribution to working toward a better world. The R&R principles—collaboration, leadership, room for development, transparency, and quality over quantity—are fundamental to how we work together and are integral to all our activities, including the recruitment process.
The
Mathematical Institute of the Department of Mathematics organises and teaches the Bachelor's curricula in Mathematics as well as the (English-taught) Master's programme in Mathematics and some service teaching in mathematics. The Institute is internationally recognised for its research in both pure and applied mathematics. It houses the Utrecht
Geometry Centre and maintains a long-standing tradition of transdisciplinary collaboration with other scientific fields including, among others, atmosphere/ocean sciences, computational life sciences, mathematical biology, mathematical economics, medical and seismic imaging, theoretical computer science, and theoretical physics. We participate in university focus areas in Complex Systems and Applied Data Science.
