| Lecture notes | The script will be delivered at the begin of the semester |
| Literature | The script is including a comprehensive list of references |
| Prerequisites / Notice | Before each class, students will get a handout or they can be uploaded from the internet. The exercises take place in small groups. It is their goal to deepen knowledge gained in the classes written end of semester examination |
