Study week Mathematics for Industry 2023
From 11 to 15 September 2023, the Belgian network BE-MATHS-IN on applied mathematics for industry and innovation, which gathers applied mathematical researchers at all Belgian universities, organizes its second Belgian study week “Mathematics for Industry”, which will be held at the U-residence on the VUB campus in Brussels.
The study week is an intensive problem-solving workshop that brings together young researchers, postdocs, scientists and industrialists. In the course of one week, small groups of researchers of different backgrounds will intensively brainstorm and work together to model and solve real-world challenges provided by industry. On Monday, each company representative presents their problem, after which the participants choose a problem to work on for the remainder of the week along with the industrial partner. On Friday morning, each group presents their solution to the chosen problem.
The study week warmly welcomes a broad scientific audience: from applied and computational sciences (applied mathematics, engineering, statistics, …) to pure sciences (mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, …).
MAIN OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY WEEK
- Showcase the potential of mathematics to solve industrial problems
- Stimulate lasting R&D collaborations between academia and industry
- Enable academic partnerships between researchers of various backgrounds and fields of expertise
- Promote knowledge transfer from mathematics to industry
