The IMA is holding a 10-day workshop on Mathematical
Modeling in Industry.
The workshop is designed to provide graduate students and
qualified advanced
undergraduates with first hand experience in industrial
research.
Students will work in teams of up to 6 students under the
guidance of a mentor
from industry. The mentor will help guide the students in the
modeling process,
analysis and computational work associated with a real-world
industrial problem.
A progress report from each team will be scheduled during the
period. In addition,
each team will be expected to make an oral final presentation
and submit a written
report at the end of the 10-day period.
