The ECMI educational program in Industrial Mathematics
July 30, 2011
Via Saldini 50, 20133 Milano
Italy
This workshop is intended to present the international educational activities and scientific research in Industrial Mathematics which take place inside the universities of the ECMI consortium (European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry).
The aim of the workshop is to stimulate the discussion between Industry and Academia to improve the educational programme, also by increasing the collaborations with Industry, via jointly supervised master theses, students industrial internships, modelling seminars, etc.
It is a side event of the ESSIM Summer School 2011.
The purpose of ECMI industrial mathematics programmes is expressed by the mission statement of ECMI:
The main instruments in obtaining these goals are collaboration on the development of course curricula in mathematical disciplines relevant for applications in industry and commerce.
The ECMI Educational ProgrammeVarious implementations of industrial mathematics programmes are available at the ECMI partner universities. Typically the programmes consists of a two year master programme (120 ECTS – laurea magistrale) which can be entered after a bachelor degree in mathematics or applied mathematics. Other educational backgrounds can qualify for entry but should be based on a minimum of three year undergraduate study at university level. The students can choose between two lines of study, the first one is techno-mathematics and the second one is econo-mathematics.
Both programmes are running at the Universita' degli Studi di Milano, where students are trained also using modern software instruments for Statistics and Scientific Computing, like SAS, Matlab, MPI, etc. The ECMI partner universities offer industrial mathematics programmes which typically include the following elements
ECMI provides a certificate to all the students who fulfill the requirements of the educational programme.
Recently also some joint or double degree Master programmes have been established inside the consortium, as a fall out of the Erasmus Mundus project ESIM and the Erasmus Curriculum Development project ECMIMIM. Programme and moviesVideorecorded:
