Graduate Student Education - What is it? Why should people support us? What do we do?

Applied Mathematicians at UW:

develop numerical methods and tools to simulate and assess potential danger from volcanic eruption, flooding and tsunami inundation for the Puget Sound area and around the world
research mathematical models for noninvasive medical treatments for kidney stones, diabetic ulcers, broken bones
model laser light propagation for improved communication systems
investigate and model the chemical systems and molecular motors that drive all processes in the body
educate the next generation of mathematicians both at the university and local elementary schools
...and much more!

We're constantly challenging our minds, now we're also challenging our bodies in order to raise money for our community at UW. A team of 9 students, 3 faculty and 1 alumnus will participate in the Seattle half marathon this November.

Our Goal is to Raise $20,000 to Support Graduate Education in our Department.
