STUDENT CHAPTER OF SIAM

MAGDEBURG

3rd Symposium of the German SIAM Student Chapters

28.08.2014 -  

After the two successful Symposia of the German SIAM Student Chapters in Trier (2012) and Heidelberg (2013), the annual series continued 2014 in Magdeburg. We expected guests from the German SIAM Chapters in Heidelberg and Trier.

For the first time, members of the SIAM Chapter in Prague participated to extend the international connections.

Where:	MPI Magdeburg, Sandtorstr. 1, seminar room Prigogine V0.05.2+3
When:	August 28-29, 2014

Joint workshop with:

• Heidelberg Chapter of SIAM
• Trier Chapter of SIAM
• Charles University in Prague Chapter of SIAM

About the workshop

At this two-day symposium, doctoral and master students of the four participating SIAM Student Chapters gave talks about their research topics at an introductory level. These covered a wide spectrum in applied mathematics, such as optimization, mathematical and numerical modeling, parameter estimation, and application examples. The first half of the scientific program ended with a pleasant walk along the Elbe River towards a bar for dinner. Later, an exciting discovery tour awaited us, we accompanied a nightwatchman on one of his nightly tour through the medieval Magdeburg. The program ended on Friday lunchtime with a final discussion about future activities and collaborations.
