Study Group Mathematics with Industry 2023
Date:Ā January 30 - February 3, 2023
Location: Academy BuildingĀ andĀ Van Swinderen Huys, Groningen
Organization: University of Groningen (organizing committee)
The Study Group Mathematics with Industry (SWI) is a combined industrialāacademic week-long workshop sponsored by NWO. Roughly seventy mathematicians work in groups on problems submitted by companies. Companies present a selection of problems on Monday. The participants devote the entire week to studying these problems in smaller groups, and presents their results on Friday.
SWI is ideal for companies that are new to cooperation with academia. The event is often a first step towards a fruitful long-term collaboration between companies and academia.
Programme outline:
- Monday morning: presentation of open problems by companies
- Monday afternoon: initial modelling discussions of problem owners with participants
- Tuesday - Thursday: whole day sessions of the teams to work on the problems; problem owners are contacted when needed
- Friday morning: final presentation of the outcomes
- After the modelling week: writing of two types of reports:
- a. popularized version for a broad audience
- b. scientific reports containing the mathematical approaches and the conclusions
