Southeast Applied & Computational Math Student Workshop

A welcoming forum where graduate students and postdoctoral researchers share their work, meet peers across the Southeast, and build connections with faculty and national-laboratory scientists.

About & objectives

A place for early-career researchers to be heard.

The workshop began in 2023 as the Florida–Georgia Applied and Computational Math Student Workshop and has since grown into a broader Southeast gathering. It brings together graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and other researchers in an informal setting centered on student talks, posters, plenary lectures, and conversation. It is open to the wider research community.

01

Give students the floor

Create a supportive setting for graduate students and postdocs to present research and receive useful feedback.

02

Connect the region

Build lasting relationships among applied and computational mathematics communities across the Southeast.

03

Exchange ideas

Share methods, applications, and emerging directions in scientific computing, data science, modeling, and analysis.

04

Broaden pathways

Help early-career researchers learn from faculty, peers, and scientists working in universities and national laboratories.

Workshop community

The people behind the mathematics.

Talks and posters begin the exchange. The conversations between sessions often become the collaborations, mentoring relationships, and friendships that continue afterward.
