MATH-328: Algebraic geometry I - CurvesAlgebraic geometry is the common language for many branches of modern research in mathematics. This course gives an introduction to this field by studying algebraic curves and their intersection theory. ...
MATH-410: Riemann surfacesThis course is an introduction to the theory of Riemann surfaces. Riemann surfaces naturally appear is mathematics in many different ways: as a result of analytic continuation, as quotients of complex domains under discontinuous group actions, as algebraic ...
MATH-535: Algebraic geometry III - selected topicsThis course is an introduction to intersection theory on algebraic varieties.
An important aim of the course is to develop geometric intuition while using the language of schemes developed in the basic algebraic geometry course, thus building a solid foun ...
MGT-602: Mathematical models in supply chain managementOver the past decade, supply chain management has drawn enormous attention by industry and academia alike. Given an increasingly global economy, pronounced trends towards outsourcing and advances in information technology, more and more complex business re ...
BIO-510: IGEMAn interdisciplinary EPFL student team will design and build genetic circuits with novel functionalities. Students learn to develop a project and carry it out to completion in a concrete manner. Their creativity and critical thinking are highly encouraged. ...
PHYS-726: Introduction to Frustrated MagnetismTo provide an introduction to all aspects of the rapidly evolving field of frustrated magnetism:
- New paradigms: spin liquids, spin ice, topological order, ...
- Basic models and methods
- Experimental realizations ...

Etude d'exemples fondamentaux: équations du premier ordre, équation des ondes, équation de la chaleur. Théorème de Cauchy-Kowalevsky, problèmes abstraits d'évolution. ...
HUM-274: Musical theory and creativityThis course provides an introduction into music theory and analysis, composition, and creativity, and combines theoretical teaching with hands-on practical exercises and music making. ...
COM-406: Foundations of Data ScienceWe discuss a set of topics that are important for the understanding of modern data science but that are typically not taught in an introductory ML course. In particular we discuss fundamental ideas and techniques that come from probability, information the ...
AR-201(m): Studio BA3 (Taillieu)A house is the simple topic of this studio. A matter of simple complexity. Learning about a house is learning about
architecture. The first part of the year is about learning about a house. The second part is about making your house. ...
