From September 08-19, 2025, the University of Douala of Cameroon (through the Faculty of Science) and the Technical University of Braunschweig of Germany (through the Computational Sciences in Engineering study program and the Center for Mechanics Uncertainty and Simulation in Engineering) will co-organize (with the contribution of Advanced Sciences and Technology Academy, a private Institution in Douala) a CIMPA Summer School at the University of Douala on the topic «On Modern Mathematical Tools in Mechanics ».
Seven Lecturers (04 from Germany, 02 from Cameroon and 01 from Senegal) will train young Africans (Master’s and Ph.D.’s students and lecturers) on useful Mathematical Science tools (Python and Data Science for Engineers, Research Software Engineering, Mathematical modelling with ODE and PDE, Numerical Analysis on ODE and PDE, Costal Zone Modelling) to address questions in mechanics (and in a wide range of fields) tailored to their environment.
The school will contribute to develop mathematical modeling in Engineering.in.Africa by Africans with the support of the German expertise for a future Africa-Germany research network in the field.
