4th Workshop on Optimal Control of Dynamical Systems and Applications will be held 26 – 28 Feb 2025 in Villany, Hungary. Workshop is organized by Osijek Mathematical Society and School of Applied Mathematics and Informatics, J. J. Strossmayer University of Osijek.

Twenty-five years ago, in 1999, the School of Applied Mathematics and Informatics – mathos – was established and began its work as the Department of Mathematics. Over the years, mathos has grown into a recognizable academic center that shapes generations of experts in the fields of mathematics, computer science, and data science.

The introductory lecture by the dean for first-year undergraduate students will take place on Monday, September 30, 2024, in Lecture Hall 1, starting at 9:00 AM. After the introductory lecture, classes will be held according to the schedule. Classes for other undergraduate and graduate students begin on Monday, October 7, 2024, according to the schedule.

From July 2nd to 5th, 2024, the School of Applied Mathematics and Informatics hosted the 8th Croatian Mathematical Congress, the largest scientific gathering of mathematicians in Croatia, organized every four years. The congress brought together around two hundred experts from all over the world, promoting the exchange of knowledge and the latest achievements in mathematics.

From February 17th to 25th, 2024, our School hosted the OCPC, the competitive programming training camp aimed at preparing students for ICPC and similar programming competitions.

Jelena Jankov Pavlović, PhD, from the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, has been selected as a member of the prestigious mathematical organization European Mathematical Society Young Academy (EMYA), founded by the decision of the Council of the European Mathematical Society in 2022. Her candidacy for EMYA membership was proposed by the Croatian Mathematical Society, which has been a member of the European Mathematical Society since 1993. The main function of EMYA is to strengthen the role of the young generation of mathematicians in Europe. The aim is to support them in their career development and better integrate them into the development of the European Mathematical Society and decision-making processes.

Mat-Dyn-Net Winter School on Model Reduction for Optimization and Control is held on 19 – 23 February 2024 in Dubrovnik. The school is organised by COST and the School of Applied Mathematics and Informatics, Josip Juraj Strossmayer University of Osijek, Croatia, within the COST action Mathematical models for interacting dynamics on networks (Mat-Dyn-Net), CA18232.

During the evaluation of the final report, the Erasmus+ project GAMMA (GAMe based learning in MAthematics) has been labelled as a “Good Practice” project. “Good Practice” is a label awarded by the Erasmus+ National Agency to projects that have been particularly well managed and can be a source of inspiration for others.

We are pleased to announce the 8th Croatian Mathematical Congress, to be held on July 2 – 5, 2024, at the School of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science in Osijek.
