Winter 2003/2004
Seminar : Mathematical Modeling


Dozent: Prof. Dr. V. Schulz



Vorbesprechung : Donnerstag, 30. Oktober 2003, 12:00 - 14:00, E44

Beginn : Donnerstag, 30. Oktober 2003, 12:00 - 14:00, E44

Zeit/Ort : Do. 12:00 s.t. - 14:00, E44

Inhalt : Mathematical modeling is an issue which is typically underestimated during mathematical studies. In this seminar, we will meet real life modeling problems for which specific questions are fomulated and mathematical solutions are searched. An incentive for taking part in this seminar is the chance to participate within the annual contest in mathematical modeling organized by COMAP (February 5--9, 2004). At most, two student teams consisting of three undergraduate (= below diploma) students can be enrolled in this contest from our university. The price for the winning team of the contest is free travel and participation at the annual meeting of the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) - 2004 in Portland, Oregon, USA.

Literatur : Problems from earlier contests.

Seminarsprache/language : Deutsch und Englisch ist zulässig / both English and German is welcome.
