The Stieltjes Institute organizes one or two educational weeks each semester. During such a week, some members of the Institute's staff treat a subject paramount to mathematics. The intended audience consists of advanced students and starting PhD students enrolled in Dutch universities.
The aim of the Stieltjes Institute's educational weeks is to promote the cooperation of Dutch universities in the educational domain, and to bring about a critical mass that individual institutes often lack.
This page provides general information. Please see the links below for more detailed information on specific educational weeks, or contact the principal organizer mentioned. The general organization of the weeks lies with:
- Peter Stevenhagen
- Arjen Doelman
Suggestions for future educational weeks may be sent to them.

REGISTRATIONEvery Dutch student or PhD student of mathematics may participate without cost. However, registration by email with the principal organizer is required in time. Please mention whether you are a student (and what year you are in) or a PhD student.
LOCATIONThe educational weeks take place at the Lorentz Center in Leiden. The Center can be reached by car, or by bus from Leiden Central Station - click here to see how. The Lorentz Center provides lecture-rooms and workrooms for the participants.
FACILITIESThe Stieltjes Institute offers coffee, tea, lunch, and a reception of welcome. The Stieltjes universities support participation in the educational weeks and are willing to help participants with
- scheduling problems
- travelling-expenses
