The IT Department offers a core curriculum of PhD-level courses regularly. In addition, PhD-level courses in the form of seminars and guest lectures are often organised, in order to cover special issues and timely research topics. Here are the course lists of the four PhD education subjects and their specialisations:
- courses in Computer Science
- courses in Computerised Image Processing
- courses in Scientific Computing
Every PhD student is free to attend every course of every subject, so all four lists should be browsed, especially since there are broad introductory courses in each list.
