GROW@Dresden 2026 is aimed at all students of underrepresented gender identities in mathematics, especially women, who are interested in exploring graduate programmes and research opportunities both within and beyond academia.

This two-day conference will take place at Technische Universität Dresden and is jointly organized with the mathematics community at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG). Participants will gain insight into mathematical research, academic careers, and industry pathways, while connecting with a supportive network of faculty, researchers, and peers.The conference is open to Bachelor and Master students from universities in Germany and neighbouring countries, including international students. It is possible to apply for funding for hotel and/or travel costs in the registration. Talks and panels will be in English, but many of the mentors/volunteers/organisers will be able to speak in German and possibly other languages.
