A word from the alumni : Maxime Renard

My name is Maxime Renard, former M2 SIAM student, currently doing a PhD in the Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann (LJK) on Grenoble Alpes campus dealing with fluid mechanics modelling for biology. It is the same laboratory as the one I did my M2 SIAM internship in, about a related topic. Before attending this M2, I followed a Bachelor Degree in Informatics and Mathematics (“IMA” track in UGA), and the M1 Applied Maths, which could be seen as a dive into how mathematics are used in our lives.

This made me fall in love with applications, ranging from biology to physics, through seismology and climate study, explaining I chose the M2 SIAM to end this Master. I consider this M2 as a great opportunity; thanks to the projects to produce, the research papers to read and the oral presentations to perform, I really got to learn and play with deep topics, touching direct everyday life applications, such as shape optimization, modelling, signal processing, developing efficient simulation code etc. This Master was overall a knowledge widening experience, I wish everyone could attend.
