Learning unit contents
This course is taught in English, as part of the Amis and FAME+ Masters.
Since this course is an optional course taught to a usually small number of students, there is some latitude in defining its content, for example by taking into account topics of interest for the future master thesis, etc.
The course usually relies on the analysis and discussion of papers from the recent literature. Depending on the different backgrounds of students, the course may start with a few more conventional lectures.
The "project" part of the course can be an experimental project and/or the guided preparation of a tutorial presentation (i.e., focusing on specifities of addressing a non-expert audience)
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The learning outcomes differ since the course is tailored to take into account the specific background of individual students.
