Online delivery method
- The course will be conducted using the Microsoft Teams platform.
- The university and the lecturers are used to do online teaching and have state-of-the-art systems to do so and are able to deliver highly interactive experiences. We will limit the number of participants in the course and have additional lecturers per room to ensure a highly interactive experience. Though we will do our best to record all sessions, we are expecting participants to attend them live to enable interactions between participants and lectures. Any and all questions are welcome.
- Please note that all participants need to have their own copy of Matlab since they will be using their own computers. Trial versions are available for free and the following links should be useful to check: https://www.mathworks.com/campaigns/products/trials.html , https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab.html
