The Pro-Vice Chancellor for Internationalisation, Professor Colin Grant, has awarded a start-up grant of GBP 12,000 towards the workshop series in collaboration with the Mexican institutions of Universidad Autónoma de México (UNAM) and Centro de Investigación en Matemáticas (CIMAT).

SAMBa BUC workshops
Bath academics enjoying CIMAT

These workshops have been termed the BUC series (Bath, UNAM, CIMAT). The Department of Mathematical Sciences' links with Mexico are already growing but the high quality research enabled from these activities will result in substantial impact from all three institutions. There will be opportunities for students and researchers from SAMBa and the Department of Mathematical Sciences to work with world-leading academics, spend time developing collaborative research projects, and gain experience in delivering training courses.
