Before Patrick Henning became Professor of Numerical Mathematics at the Faculty of Mathematics at RUB in October 2020, his research career had already taken him to Sweden and Switzerland.

After studying mathematics in Freiburg, Patrick Henning obtained his doctorate at the University of Münster. This was followed by first research stays at the University of Uppsala, Sweden, and the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland. Back in Germany the next career step followed. The habilitation in mathematics at the University of Münster. However, the Swedish chapter was not yet closed, so that Patrick Henning then went to the Swedish capital Stockholm as a lecturer and Associate Professor for five years.

In his current research, Patrick Henning is focusing on the design and analysis of numerical methods for the solution of multiscale differential equations. His fields of interest include finite element methods, multiscale methods for partial differential equations, and computational quantum physics.
