Factsheet

Climate change, energy transition, and digitalisation are complex challenges that require mathematical and computational solutions. However, Europe faces a shortage of researchers skilled in methods that can be applied in areas such as sustainable energy, green logistics, and data science. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the ALMOA project will train a group of doctoral candidates by combining research with industry experience. Specifically, the project will connect top academics with industry partners to develop effective mathematical tools and software, while preparing young researchers to promote sustainable innovation worldwide.

ALMOA is funded under the HORIZON-MSCA-2024-DN-01-01 — MSCA Doctoral Networks call
