Title
Søren's stuff.
Description
Family
As of late March 2003 I changed my name from Søren Have Hansen to only Søren Have. This I did mainly to be able to give my daughter Marie (born 20 May 2003) the last name Have.
Education
I was born the 29th of January 1970 in the small village (I mean really small, in the range of 50 houses) Lystrup on the north-coast of Djursland (Jutland, Denmark). Kindergarten and 1-7 grade was spent at the nearby public school Langhøjskolen, Vivild and 8-9 grade at the private school Randers Realskole 30 kilometers away. After that I went to the gymnasium Amtsgymnasiet i Paderup which I really enjoyed (see the home-page for class '89). All the way along I had the luck of having qualified and enthusiastic teachers in the natural sciences mathematics, physics and chemistry.
In 1989-90 I then did my service in the army ...(now). Of course it was not as enjoyable as the gymnasium, but it was OK and I got to save up some money. Surely I had good use for those when I started at the university in September 1990. I started at the mathematics/physics programme and after two years I decided that I would major in mathematics. This was actually a bit surprising (at least to me), because I had until then assumed I was going to be a physicist. Anyhow, I finished physics and started taking graduate courses in mathematics. Then in January 1995 I took my major examination in mathematics and joined the Ph.D.-program at the mathematics department. Two years later, in December 1996, I handed in my progress-report and passed my qualifying exam. At the same time, I received the M.Sc.-degree.
