1st Mathematical Modelling Workshop: MathMods & EMA Alumni Meeting 2014

The 1st Mathematical Modelling Workshop was born from the wish to celebrate the initial 5 generations of the MathMods program, reinforce connections and present current work among all the master students and Alumni from the Erasmus Mundus Association (EMA) interested in Mathematical Modelling. The workshop also plays a role of a forum purposed for the exchange of ideas and discussions on topics related to mathematical modelling in engineering. Young researchers both from academia and private sectors are invited to participate, exchange their scientific knowledge and share information about different research groups, job opportunities and other relevant topics.

The Workshop consists of two parts. On the first two days, 14th and 15th of July, the Alumni meeting takes place: students from different EMA courses gathers to discuss their common experiences in round tables sessions, scientific camp and talks. This part of the Workshop is intended to foster collaborations in a friendly and creative environment. From 16th to 18th of July, the Mathematical Modelling Workshop with mini-lectures, talks contributions and poster session is held with a focus on the many aspects of mathematical modelling, numerics and applications. Speakers from Applied Mathematics and related areas, as well as Pure Mathematics, are welcome! Finally, on the last day, 19th of July, a trip to Gran Sasso Labaratory is organized with the purpose to introduce the participants with this Institution and the developing trends in the area of particle physics.
