WHEN AND WHERE

MARCH 22-26, 2021

ONLINE EVENT

ABOUT THE EVENT

The workshop is focused in professionals of industry and other areas of knowledge, researchers of mathematics, statistics, computer sciences and related areas, phD students and senior year students of mathematical sciences.

The objective of the Brazilian Study Group with the Industry, also called “Workshop CeMEAI of Mathematical Solutions for Industrial Problems”, is to promote university-industry interaction, providing benefits from the mathematical sciences to the Brazilian industry. These groups work intensively over a week on specific problems brought to them by industry, commerce and the government sector. Applied mathematicians, statisticians and computer scientists collaborate to solve those problems and a verbal repair is provided as of the end of the week. Where necessary, a written report is provided within three months. These study groups first started at Oxford University during the 60’s. Because of their huge success, they have spread as a regular activity in many countries, for example South Africa, Germany, Australia, Canada, Spain, United States, England, Ireland and Portugal.
