EMaCs: Eindhoven Mathematics Colloquiums
EMaCs is a series of mathematics lectures aimed at attracting a broad audience of mathematicians, explicitly including students. Sometimes these lectures are combined with events of specific interest to Eindhoven staff and students, such as the introduction of new staff or announcements by the dean. EMaCs serves as a sequel of the Algemeen Wiskundecolloquium.
