The GSMM
Camp is a weeklong workshop directed towards interdisciplinary problem
solving whose aim is graduate student education and career
development. The GSMM Camp is designed to promote a broad range of
problem-solving skills, including mathematical modeling and analysis,
scientific computation, and critical assessment of solutions. The mathematical
problems considered at the Camp are highly interdisciplinary in nature and are
inspired by real problems that arise in industrial applications. Graduate and advanced undergraduate students work on the problems in teams, guided by an invited faculty
mentor, so that scientific communication is an important and integral component
of the work. As a result, the GSMM Camp exposes students to real-world
problems of current scientific interest, and provides a valuable educational
and career-enhancing experience outside of the traditional academic setting.
