At the CAAPS Symposium, renowned invited speakers give lectures on a variety of topics. In addition, local young researchers are provided with a platform in the form of a poster session. The annual format started in October 2022.

The CAAPS Colloquium, in combination with network meetings, highlights specific topics with presentations. The annual format started in February 2023.

The CAAPS workshops serve the networking and exchange of scientists from different disciplines, as well as strengthening the areas of application and the methodological cross-sectional areas.

At the CAAPS Retreat, the members of the Centre come together to discuss important matters concerning the Centre. It also serves to network new members with existing members and to jointly initiate project outlines. A 2-year cycle is planned.

The aim of CAAPS Connect is to bring together the expertise in CAAPS on a specific topic at a low threshold and to initiate joint projects. New CAAPS Connects are coordinated at short notice by the management as required.

In the Forum, representatives of German universities and representatives of societies and interest groups discuss pressing issues of research and teaching in applied mathematics.
