BGCE

The 3rd BGCE Student Paper Prize has been awarded to Mr. Andrea Manzoni of EPF Lausanne (see SIAM News). The prize consists of a one-week visit at the two BGCE universities FAU and TUM which took place in July 2011 with interesting and fruitful discussions. In particular, Andrea Manzoni gave two nice talks on “Model order reduction by reduced basis for optimal control and shape optimization”.

On July 2, 2011, this year’s BGCE soccer team took part in the EliteCup. We were able to achieve rank 10 out of 14 participants of about 30 programs (have a look on the nice certificate ;-)). Only the goal difference in a strong group held us after a victory, a loss and an even match from away off the quarter finals! So a steep positive gradient compared to last year’s performance (10 out of 13) 🙂 Thanks to all participants and supporters!

The 3rd BGCE Student Paper Prize has been awarded at SIAM CS&E on March 4, 2011. Out of eight finalists who well presented nice work, Mr. Andrea Manzoni of EPF Lausanne won the prize with his presentation on “Model order reduction by reduced basis for optimal control and shape optimization”.

On July 3, 2010, this year’s BGCE soccer team achieved the best result in the EliteCup in the BGCE history: rank 10 out of 13 participants (have a look on the nice certificate). After two very unlucky lost games (0:1), the decision for rank 9 had to be drawn from the penalty shootout. Again very unlucky 😉 Nevertheless, rank 10 of 30 ENB programs is quite good 🙂

The 2010 opening weekend of the whole “BGCE family” took place at the Generali-Seminarzentrum in Bernried.
