Continuous assessment of course work

This is a condensed course, which will take place from June 6 to June 27.

Please note that the nature of this course makes certain preparations on your part necessary: You are required to have completed the mandatory reading before the first meeting (see also "reading list"), and to have prepared your presentation (see "presentations").
You will find detailed information on both tasks on the moodle platform, to which all registered participants will have access after the registration period is completed.

Late registration is possible only if space is available, and of course if the preparations mentioned above are taken care of before the first meeting. To enquire about late registration, please contact antonina.lakner@univie.ac.at
