Target group
The summer school addresses young researchers from mathematics and engineering who are already working in the field of multiscale modeling and homogenization or are interested in these field. It is primarily meant for PhD students, but also Master students or PostDocs are very welcome. In the spirit of GAMM, we explicitly encourage people from both mathematics and engineering to participate.
