Elevating Peak Performance
Denver, CO|The Westin Denver Downtown
Nestled at the gateway to the Rocky Mountain National Park, the M&C 2025 host city, Denver, Colorado, is known for its breathtaking mountain scenery, world-class museums, vibrant and diverse culture, and its unparalleled craft breweries. We hope you can join us in this beautiful setting to enjoy a technical program full of cutting-edge research.
The International Conference on Mathematics and Computational Methods Applied to Nuclear Science and Engineering (M&C 2025) is part of a series of topical meetings organized by the Mathematics and Computation Division of the American Nuclear Society. M&C conferences, held every two years, represent a series of international forums organized and sponsored to bring together worldwide expertise related to nuclear science or technology, including mathematical and computational methods, numerical analysis, computer codes, computer architectures, and benchmarks for computationally solving problems in all disciplines encompassed by the Society.
M&C 2025 has partnered with the ANS journal Nuclear Science and Engineering (NSE) to publish a special issue of papers derived from the conference. Details will be released closer to the meeting.
Calling all students to submit papers to the 2025 M&C Conference in Denver! Papers for which the Primary Author is a student are eligible for a cash prize. You are considered a student if you were enrolled as a student while the work was completed and are giving the presentation as a current student or within 12 months of completing your degree. Please consider submitting a student paper and identifying it as such in the paper submission system. See you in Denver!
Sponsorship packages are limited, so reserve your sponsorship package early. View our prospectus for more information.
