The Unit for Advances in Mathematics and its
Applications (UAIM) 
exists 
within the <A HREF="http://cost.georgiasouthern.edu/rigs">College of 
Science and Technology</A>(COST) at 
<A HREF="http://www.georgiasouthern.edu">Georgia Southern University</A> 
for the purpose of fostering advanced research in all areas of mathematics 
which have the potential for education and applications, graduate and 
undergraduate research, for 
links with interdisciplinary institutes, for links 
with departments across the college, and for the purpose of 
facilitating the transfer of knowledge between the 
academic and industrial sectors.
The unit currently has affiliate members from departments in the 
college; <a 
href="http://math.georgiasouthern.edu">The Department of
Mathematical Sciences</a>, <a 
href="http://cost.georgiasouthern.edu/meteet/">The 
Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Technology</a>
and the <a href="http://cost.georgiasouthern.edu/physics/">Department of 
Physics</a> 
as well as members from outside the university (by courtesy of COST) who 
also serve as advisory members to the board.
<p>

UAIM has an advisory board with internal board members include Chairs of 
affiliate
COST departments.Our external members
are distingished scientists from top rate institutions.
<p>

Our members have varied interests 
in many areas of pure and applied mathematics and their applications to 
many 
other sciences.
