XI Iberian Modeling Week (IMW)
to July 11, 2025
Introduction
The IMW is a joint initiative of pt-maths-in (Portugal) and math-in (Spain), designed to introduce undergraduate and master’s students to industrial mathematics through hands-on problem-solving. Each year, students from both countries work in teams on real-world challenges proposed by companies, under the supervision of academic and industry mentors.
IMW aims to:
• Train students in applied mathematical modeling, encouraging innovative problem-solving.
• Foster collaboration between young mathematicians, preparing them for industry or
research careers.
• Strengthen ties between Portugal, Spain, and industry through cross-border cooperation.
By working in an international environment and tackling real challenges, students develop key skills in mathematical modeling, teamwork, and communication while contributing to practical industry solutions. Moreover, by hosting both IMW and ESGI back-to-back, CRM would maximize the interaction between students, researchers, and industry professionals, reinforcing the role of mathematics in solving industrial challenges and driving innovation.
objective
The IMW will feature four to five problems, each assigned to a team of five to six students.
Each team will work under the guidance of a senior researcher, applying mathematical modeling techniques to tackle real-world challenges. The problems, which are tentative at thisstage, are expected to come from fields such as mobility, optimization, and pharmaceuticals.
This structure aims to provide students with hands-on experience in industrial mathematics while fostering teamwork and collaboration.

scam warning
We are aware of a number of current scams targeting participants at CRM activities concerning registration or accommodation bookings. If you are approached by a third party (eg travellerpoint.org, Conference Committee, Global Travel Experts or Royal Visit) asking for booking or payment details, please ignore them.
Please remember:
i) CRM never uses third parties to do our administration for events: messages will come directly from CRM staff
ii) CRM will never ask participants for credit card or bank details
iii) If you have any doubt about an email you receive please get in touch
