         Summer Mini-Course for Graduate Students
              "Waves in Inhomogeneous Media"
              July 28 through August 7, 2003

The Department of Mathematics at the University of Utah will
host a summer Mini-Course for Graduate Students on "Waves in
Inhomogeneous Media".  The course features Professor George
Papanicolaou of Stanford University and Professor William Symes
of Rice University as the principal speakers.  Other lecturers
will include Alexander Balk, Andrej Cherkaev, Elena Cherkaev,
David Dobson, Ken Golden, Graeme Milton, and Jerry Schuster
all of the University of Utah.  The goal of the course is to provide
graduate students with an introduction to several of the
diverse, interesting, and exciting wave propagation phenomena
which appear at the forefront of current applied mathematics
research.  In addition to lectures, the mini-course will
feature discussions and problem sessions.  The mini-course will
conclude with a special session where students, postdocs, and
other invited researchers will have an opportunity to present
their work.  Financial support for graduate students who are
U.S. citizens, nationals, or permanent residents, is available
for a limited number of applicants through the Department's
NSF VIGRE grant.  Students with other means of support are
welcome to apply.  There is no registration fee and some on-
campus housing is available.

A preliminary announcement and application form can be found
at http://www.math.utah.edu/vigre/minicourses/
The application and a letter of reference are due by June 13, 2003.
The webpage will be updated soon as a detailed schedule is
developed.
