The School of Mathematical Sciences were delighted to welcome our incoming BScRAS3 students and BTBU staff from Beijing to Cork this week. They have a busy schedule this week visiting Blarney Castle and going to Kinsale for a traditional Irish music show.

We hope they enjoy their time in Cork!

Dr Cónall Kelly, School of Mathematical Sciences, has received funding for a COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) Action, entitled “Stochastic Differential Equations: Computation, Inference, Applications (STOCHASTICA)”, that will run over the next four years until 2029.

The School of Mathematical Sciences were delighted to host a book launch event for SoMS staff Dr Tom Carroll, Dr Cónall Kelly, and Dr Ben Taylor to celebrate all three publishing books in the past few months. They are pictured here with Head of School Dr Kevin Hayes.

The School of Mathematical Sciences hosted a Lunar New Year pot luck event for our risk and actuarial sciences students last Thursday the 30th of January. Staff and students celebrated the beginning of the Year of the Snake together with food and fun, and a even a bit of dancing! We were delighted be joined by the Head of the College of SEFS, Professor Sarah Culloty for our event.

A workshop featuring 12 leading international researchers (from 7 different countries) as invited speakers has taken place at the School of Mathematical Sciences. This event presented a number of exciting recent developments in the broad field of nonlinear dispersive waves, with a particular emphasis on waves arising in the ocean and atmosphere. The workshop, organised by Dr. David Henry, was run on a hybrid-basis and achieved a global reach of over 60 participants from 17 countries (and 6 continents)—confirming the adage that mathematics is the universal language of science.
