Faculty Lead: Dr. Alexei S. Kolesnikov, Jess & Mildred Fisher College of Science & Mathematics Community Partners: Baltimore Humane Society, Constellation Energy, RTR Technologies The Applied Mathematics Laboratory (AML) is a long-running endeavor of the Department of Mathematics. By agreement with sponsoring organizations, AML undertakes research projects of mathematical nature at the advanced undergraduate level whose analysis, solution and exposition requires substantial involvement of a team of students and faculty members for (usually) an academic year. The AML forms a team of talented undergraduate and graduate students, led by one or two faculty mentors with particular interest in the problem posed. This team studies the problem and supplies an honest, intensive effort on the part of its best mathematical talent to study and fully report to the sponsor. Students receive course credit for their participation. To date, the Applied Mathematics Lab has worked on 20+ projects with partners across non-profit, private, and public sectors.
