The highlight of the first week of the programme was the symposium where internationally renowned female mathematicians presened their current research.
The second week focused on the career opportunities that are possible when studying mathematics. Female mathematicians from different industries exchanged their experiences with pupils and students. Another focus of the second week was mathematics itself were school children entered the world of mathematical thinking in workshops for school classes.
