UWM Center for Industrial Mathematics

Dedicated to excellence in industrial and interdisciplinary research and education.

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Department of Mathematical Sciences offers opportunities for students to enter the exciting field of industrial mathematics through the Master's and Ph.D. Degrees in Industrial Mathematics. An active group of faculty members of the Department are engaged in a variety of industrial and interdisciplinary research activities, and graduate students participate in research as early as possible.

Research of the UWM Center for Industrial Mathematics is unique in its practical orientation. Unlike traditional applied mathematics programs, we emphasize a broad education within mathematics, coursework outside the department, and students gain real world experience by solving mathematical problems with an industrial or interdisciplinary source.

There are opportunities for assistantships in industrial mathematics; please inquire to the CIM Director.

UWM professors, working in areas such as computational mathematics, Bio-mathematics, differential equations and dynamical systems, control theory, electromagnetics, financial mathematics, inverse problems, mathematical modeling, mathematical optimization, probability, signal and image processing, statistics, and stochastic analysis and control, work with outside partners on their technical problems.

The Center for Industrial Mathematics (CIM) supports the Department's research and educational activities through corporate and industrial consulting, organizing seminars and conferences, and advising advanced students in their research and coursework. The UWM CIM acts as an interdisciplinary liaison between the Department of Mathematical Sciences and other academic or outside groups, assists researchers with non-disclosure and patent issues, works to gather funding support, and pursues excellence in scholarship in a variety of areas.
