Michiel Hazewinkel ( born June 22, 1943) is a Dutch mathematician who is concerned with mathematics and applied algebra.

Hazewinkel studied at the University of Amsterdam Mathematics and Physics (Candidate Exam 1963) and was in 1969 with Frans Oort doctorate ( Abelian extensions of local fields ). He worked as a post-doc 1969/70 at the Steklov Institute in Moscow. In 1970 he became a lecturer ( lecturer ) and 1972 professor at the University of Rotterdam. At the same time he taught from 1973 to 1975 in Antwerp. In 1973 he was at Harvard University.
