Short Courses Through the Years

The purpose of the Short Course is to provide a diverse audience of professional and in–training mathematicians an introduction to an area of applied mathematics that can:

  • Satisfy the curiosity of those new to the subject
  • Provide an entrée to new research topics
  • Inspire new methods of problem solving
  • Be part of the participants? professional development and continuing education
