Administrative

The seminar is offered every semester. No formal registration is necessary - just attend the first meeting. It takes place every Thursday 14:15-15:45 throughout the lecture period in Room 00.131-128, Cauerstraße 11.

No matter what campo.fau.de says, the seminar is conducted in English!

For general discussion of the seminar, use the chat room #swuv:fau.de.

The seminar takes place in-person unless mentioned otherwise. If we need to do it via zoom, we will use the following room:

Flow of the Seminar, Topics and Grading Scheme

The seminar consists of weekly talks. Every student chooses one topic on which to give a talk. Additionally every student prepares a report about their topic. The grade is based on attendance, the talk, and the report.

Topics are chosen individually with the instructors, typically at the first seminar slot.

In WS24/25 we will not have free topic selection as in the semesters before, but we will schedule coordinated groups of talks based on three handbooks (listed from easy to harder):

Students can choose consecutive sections/chapters of about 15-20 pages and report on the contents. We prefer to make coordinated groups of talks, starting in the order given above (easy talks are early!).
