Lectures & labs

COVID-19 related rules:

• It is not yet clear whether any COVID-19 related restrictions will be implemented during the semester. We will provide updates once we get more information.

Lectures & labs

The lectures are held in the Delta building, room 2048. The timetable is available in the study information system. We expect students to attend to facilitate discussions. If it is impossible to participate in the classes, we also provide the option to view the recordings, which are usually made available one or two days after the lecture. However, we assume that the students have participated in the previous lectures and read the lecture notes. The questions that arise after attending the lectures and reading the lecture notes should be posted to the Moodle forum.

Information regarding the timetable and classrooms for the labs is available in the study information system. Labs will not be recorded, and it will not be possible to redo the labs. If it is impossible to attend the labs, we expect the students to solve the tasks independently, which may take more time. The tasks solved in the labs form part of the homework, and the solutions must be submitted by the deadline.
