Programme<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The course is offered every other year (i.e. every even year) as an intensive one-week course, Monday to Friday, 9h-17h, with 1 hour lunch break. About half the time will be devoted to lectures, and the other half to exercises. Lectures and exercises are 35 hours in total, and self-study is estimated to 30 hours. Preparation time for written report (home exam) is estimated to 35 hours. The total workload is thus 100 hours.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The plan of the five days, with two sessions per day, is as follows:<\/span><\/div>\n
