To pass the course it is necessary to hand in a written report. Details on the report will be presented during lectures. Significant time during the course will be spent on writing the report and doing the necessary calculations.
We focus on active learning and student participation. As well as various learning techniques included in each lecture, participating students will work on their presentation skills. 20 minutes is given for each student presentation on their thesis topic. Ten minutes will be devoted to the presentation and the remaining time will be used for feedback and feed-forward from the other students.
Lecturers:
Takaharu Otsuka (University of Tokyo)
W. A. Richter (University of Stellenbosch + iThemba LABS)
A. Macchiavelli (Lawrence Berkeley National Lab)
Sunniva Siem (University of Oslo)

In addition to these lecturers there will also be experts helping out on the hands-on sessions.
