Objective

The aim is to understand the practical uses of mathematics and specifically to solve problems in industry. The course design is focused on concrete industrial problems and incorporates distinct branches of mathematics, covering modeling, theoretical, numerical, computational and simulation aspects. As a consequence we hope to stimulate groups to start researching in specific industry areas, and in general to motivate young mathematicians to work on real-world mathematical problems.

Expected participants: students (advanced undergraduate or master level), PhD candidates and academic staff
