76th EUROPEAN STUDY GROUP with INDUSTRY Department of Mathematics Technical University of Denmark 16 - 20 August 2010 ESGI (European Study Group with Industry) is Europe's leading workshop bringing together academic mathematicians and industrial companies. These week-long workshops have been held annually since 1968 and were previously known as the Oxford Study Groups with Industry, where they attracted leading mathematicians to work on industrial problems.

Important dates

• Deadline for submission of a problem is 1 July 2010 and the fee is DKK 25000.
• Deadline for registration for academics and students is 31 July 2010 and there is no fee. The regigistration is done by sending an email to Kari Haugland <k.haugland (a) mat.dtu.dk>

• Programme

Problem areas studied have included heat and mass transfer, fluid flow, financial derivative pricing and processes, granular materials, electric fields, geometry, operational analysis, but there are in principle no limitations in the types of mathematics brought to bear in these workshops.

Among the Danish companies who have participated in previous Study Groups are LEGO, Novo Nordisk, Danfoss, Grundfos, DSB, DONG, Danske Bank, and many others.
