We invite graduate students (working toward a M.Sc. or PhD or equivalent) from all countries and from all disciplines related to the topic of the school to apply. Attendance will be restricted to about 40 well-qualified participants, who will be selected based on the submitted application documents.

It is part of the G2S3 2017 mission statement to increase diversity in the Computational Sciences. We therefore particularly encourage female students and students from under-represented minorities to apply, as well as students from smaller institutions.

In order to apply, please send the following documents, all written in English and combined into a single PDF file to golub2017(at)math.tu-berlin.de:

  • A cover letter describing your relevant experience and your motivation to take part in the G2S3 2017 (2 pages max.)
  • A short CV (2 pages max.)
  • A transcript containing relevant classes you attended (only course titles and grades)
  • If required, an application for financial support of travel costs (see below)
Please use the following email subject: G2S3 Application: last name, first name.

In addition, one letter of recommendation from your advisor should be sent separately to golub2017(at)math.tu-berlin.de using the email subject G2S3 Reference: last name, first name.

The deadline for applications is February 1, 2017.
Questions concerning the application process (or the school in general) can be addressed to golub2017(at)math.tu-berlin.de.



Applying for Financial Support


The generous sponsorship from SIAM makes it possible that all selected participants will have their lodging and meals covered by the school. In addition, we will (at least partially) reimburse reasonable travel costs upon application. If you require travel support, then please submit a brief statement indicating the expected amount with your application. A request of funding will not influence the decision on admission to the school.

While it is our goal to refund expenses for as many participants as we can, we cannot make guarantees at this point. Candidates are strongly encouraged to inquire whether travel support is available with their advisor or institution. Funding decisions will be communicated in the notification letters of the successful candidates.
