Tips and Learning Resources:
Tools for the preparation of mathematical documents
- LaTeX - A document preparation system.
- TeXstudio - An integrated writing environment for creating LaTeX documents.
- Inkscape - The vector graphics editor I usually use.
- IPE - A popular vector graphics editor.
- Organize your references using BibTex and zbMATH or MathSciNet. There usually is no need to write the bibliography by hand.
- Detexify helps you find the latex code for mathematical symbols. This is often faster than going through the comprehensive symbol list.
On mathematical writing
- Terence Tao's advice on writing papers.
- Knuth, Larrabee, and Roberts' report on mathematical writing.
- Glasman-Deal's book on science research writing.

Links / advice: your first year as a student
- Take the initiative. It's your responsibility to envision and achieve your goals.
- Check if your university offers affordable (or even free) language courses, transferable skills training or sport activities!
- Consider planning a study abroad year! Depending on the destination, preparation (getting a scholarship, visa, etc.) may take over one year.
