African Mathematical Schools (AMS)
The African Mathematical Schools (AMS / EMA) are an African Mathematical Union activities supported by
CIMPA
(Centre International de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées)
The duration of an AMS is between 2 and 4 weeks. Their main objectives are:
- To provide Master students or early PhD students with the mathematical foundations and essential tools of selected active areas of mathematics.
- To contribute to the development of mathematics in all regions of the African continent by promoting the exchange of knowledge between young African mathematicians and the international mathematical community.
- To break the isolation of African mathematicians by providing a platform for meeting fellow mathematicians from around the world, for exchanging knowledge and for sharing experience.
A call for application is published every year in early summer for the organisation of AMS (EMA) the following year. Proposals are evaluated by an UMA-CIMPA common scientific committee. link to AMS Schools from CIMPA website
