Start of the Course

The Course Introduction is Tuesday 3 Sept 15:30-16:30 at the following Zoom-link: https://du-se.zoom.us/j/65086747280 

It is an opportunity for you to introduce yourselves and ask questions about the course. It will not be recorded, but I will upload the power-point presentation afterwards.

Even if you are unable to attend the Course Introduction, you must introduce yourself in the Discussion created for that purpose.

Study Format

The course consists of 4 Modules with lectures and seminars. It concludes with a Final Paper. All lectures are pre-recorded and can be found in each respective Module.

We view group work as an important resource in all course activities. Hence, active participation in the Seminars, via Zoom, is mandatory. Before each seminar you are required to submit a written assignment.

If you miss a seminar, you  must make an additional compensatory assignment.

The first seminar will be on Thu. 12 Sept 09:00-10:30. Deadline for the submission of the seminar assignment is Wed. 11 Sept. 13:00.

Prepare for Your Studies.

Specific reading instruction can be found on the Schedule As you can see, you will need all of the 3 books listed as Course Literature (Hayden in particular) for the First Module.
