How AI is Transforming Mathematics: International Workshop at UniDistance Suisse What happens when formal methods meet artificial intelligence? This question took centre stage at the international workshop “Formalization and Proof Assistants”, held from 25 to 27 March 2026 at UniDistance Suisse and organised by Professor of Mathematics David Loeffler. The event formed part of the “Spring Meetings” of the Swiss Mathematical Society and brought together leading experts from around the world.

Great Success for the Lego Holiday Course at UniDistance Suisse As part of the Brig District Holiday Pass programme, a highly regarded Lego and programming course for children took place at the end of July on the university campus of UniDistance Suisse. In a playful and inspiring learning environment, the participating children had the opportunity to ac-quire technical know-how and express their creativity freely. The response was overwhelmingly positive – the children were enthusiastic and highly engaged.
