The MITACS Industrial Math Summer School is a new initiative aimed at providing
undergraduate students with an opportunity to do mathematical research in groups
on real-world problems. We will combine students from different academic backgrounds
in teams of four or five to work on problems submitted by local companies, research
labs and non-profit organizations. Each team will work for one month on one problem.
Check out the MITACS website HERE for more information.
