We are excited to announce the 2025 Simulation Summer School on Hydrodynamics (HD) and Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), which will be held on August 14-15, 2025, at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) in Newark, NJ, USA.

Program Overview: This program is intended for graduate students, especially those who are beginners in numerical simulation. Students who are interested in starting simulations, keen to learn about simulation techniques, or eager to understand numerical schemes implemented in open-source code are strongly encouraged to apply.

Important information:
1. Dates: August 14-15, 2025
2. Location: New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), Newark, NJ
3. Eligibility: Graduate students (U.S. citizens will be prioritized)
4. Focus: For beginners interested in simulations and their applications in research
5. Prerequisites: Basic proficiency in Fortran/Python/C++ is recommended.
6. Travel support: Travel and local expenses are available for a limited number of US participants.

Application Instructions: Interested applicants should submit the following documents by May 20, 2025 to Professor Satoshi Inoue ([email protected]).

– A brief CV (please indicate whether you have prior simulation experience)
– A statement of research interest, including whether you plan to use simulation in your future research and how you intend to apply it
– A short reference letter from an advisor or faculty member

Notes:
1. The CV and statement should not exceed two pages in total. Please ask your advisor to send the reference letter directly to Professor Satoshi Inoue.
2. Please note that this summer school is intended as a small-scale event. Depending on the number of applications, we may not be able to accept all of them. We appreciate your understanding.

We encourage motivated students to take advantage of this opportunity to deepen their understanding of numerical simulations of HD and MHD through lectures (including fundamentals of finite difference methods, brief introduction of HD and MHD, and basics of Approximate Riemann Solvers, etc), and hands-on sessions.

We look forward to receiving your applications.
