Prerequisites
Basic training in applied mathematics (e.g. via the major/minor in applied mathematics).
Main themes
The seminar allows local and international speakers to present research results in various domains of applied mathematics : systems and control, numerical analysis, optimisation, etc.

Teaching methods
Students take part (possibly over a single semester) to various research activities in applied mathematics organized at UCLouvain, among which the mathematical engineering seminars.
In these seminars, researchers and professors from UCLouvain or other universities present recent research works.

Evaluation methods
Students must choose to take the course in either the first or second semester, and must inform the course coordinator of their choice of semester at the beginning of the first semester (the deadline for making this choice will be provided on Moodle). They are required to attend all seminars in their chosen semester. Seminars are held every week of the first and second semester (with some exceptions), during the time slot reserved for the course.
Students' marks are obtained on the basis of:
1. An overall grade based on work done during the term (e.g. seminar quizzes, participation in discussion workshops, reading groups). Further information on these assignments will be provided via Moodle. This grade is referred to below as C.
2. Presentation of a paper on a research topic in mathematical engineering, leading to a grade referenced below by the letter E.
The final grade for the course will be obtained according to the formula 0.4*C+0.6*E.
Any violation of the methodological rules, for example regarding the use of online resources and collaborations between students, for any assignment, may result in a global grade of 0 for the group of activities concerned (i.e., the above-mentioned grade C or E). Only the grade E could be modified during the August/September exam session, the grade C will be conserved for each exam session of the academic year.
The use of generative AI software such as chatGPT is authorized for assistance in writing the reports requested as part of this course. In this instance, however, an appendix will be required detailing, for each of the sections concerned, how the AI was used (information search, drafting and/or correction of the text, ...). In addition, external information sources must be systematically cited in compliance with bibliographic referencing standards.The student is responsible of the content of his/her work, independently of the references/sources used.
