École nationale des ponts et chaussées will host the 5th edition of the CJC-MA, the Congress of Young Researchers in Applied Mathematics, from March 2 to 4, 2026, in Champs-sur-Marne. Initiated by the SMAI, this annual conference is dedicated to early-career researchers in applied mathematics. This edition is organized by the laboratories CERMICS, LAMA, and LIGM, which all belong to the Fédération Bézout.
The conference has three main objectives:
- to promote scientific exchanges between early-career and more experienced researchers on a wide range of topics in applied mathematics and its applications;
- to give visibility to the work of young researchers through oral presentations and poster sessions;
- to provide a forum for discussion on opportunities and perspectives for scientific and/or academic careers.
The format is designed to encourage discussion, networking, and the presentation of ongoing research, and includes:
- three plenary lectures (1 hour each) given by established researchers;
- several parallel thematic sessions (1 hour 30 minutes) featuring contributed oral presentations, including one special session on the first day with invited speakers, possibly related to themes supported by specific grants;
- one poster session (1 hour);
- one thematic round table (1 hour 30 minutes).
