MathAcrossCampus

at the University of Washington

MathAcrossCampus is a quarterly colloquium series at the University of Washington to showcase applications of mathematics, with a special emphasis on the growing role of discrete methods in math applications. The goal of this seminar is to expose theoreticians to applied work, to create a community of mathematicians and users of mathematics at UW, and to serve as a guide to students and researchers looking for projects and jobs in math-related areas by offering exposure to ongoing math applications in the Seattle area.

This website, in addition to providing information about the MathAcrossCampus colloquium series, also serves as a central repository for cross-campus information such as interdisciplinary courses, departmental colloquia, and other math-related events of interest to multiple departments.
