Classes

Scheduling and working program will be done in agreement with the students signing up. We will start out with a blocked session in which an overview of the course will be presented, and the working format will be discussed, followed by flexibly arranged sessions considering the students' availability, in which a variety of funding schemes and grant proposals will be discussed, including possibilities to get feedback on written texts/proposals. The first session will take place online via Zoom on October 2, 9 am; the zoom link will be shared with those registered. Obligatory attendance as the scheduling and work assignments will be done in that meeting.
