Hairer is a member of the editorial boards for the journals Mathematics of Computation and Journal of Scientific Computing.

He wrote, with others, Solving Ordinary Differential Equations (Hairer, Nørsett, Wanner) and L'analyse au fil de l'histoire (Hairer, Wanner).

Hairer holds a doctor honoris causa from the University of Lund.

In 2003 he was awarded the Peter Henrici Prize by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.

In 2009 a conference on scientific computing and differential equations was held in honor of his 60th birthday, at the University of Geneva, and in the same year the 7th International Conference in Numerical Analysis and Applied Mathematics in Crete was dedicated in his honor.
