Abstract
Modeling Clinic for Industrial Mathematics (MODCLIM) is a Strategic Partnership for the Development of Training Workshops and Modeling Clinic for Industrial Mathematics, funded through the European Commission under the Erasmus Plus Program, Key Action 2: Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices.
MODCLIM develops a project focused on mathematical technologies needed for the progress of industry and novel engineering solutions. The project pretends to contribute in addressing the challenges that industrial mathematics, as a part of the next generation of methodologies in research and development (R&D) and knowledge management, represents for university education, curriculum development, training practices and research collaboration.
MODCLIM project introduces into European higher education a novel concept in academic research training and education of industrial mathematics by combining elements from earlier successful ideas tested worldwide. It is organized in cycles, each consisting of three interconnected steps: (1) Training school, (2) Intermediate online-project, and (3) Modeling Clinic. The project’s aim is to provide an integrated learning experience for the students, thus ensuring a proper connection between these three steps.
In this paper we expose an overall idea about MODCLIM project, and a brief description of two MODCLIM cycles organized in 2015 and 2016.
