Course programme

We will inform our course participants with their course schedule the end of May. The precise structure differs per course but most courses will have a similar set-up of offering recorded lectures (which the student can view at any time) and a few work groups (with virtual team work). This depends a bit on the exact location students are from since we will have to deal with time differences. It might be an option for professors to offer a work groups (practical lectures) two times and/or organize students in similar time zones in the same workgroup for example. The goal is to still have interactive lessons.
