MATH-506: Topology IV.a - Cohomology ringsSingular cohomology is defined by dualizing the singular chain complex for spaces. We will study its basic properties, see how it acquires a multiplicative structure and becomes a graded commutative algebra. We study an algebraic version, namely group coho ...

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 ...
PHYS-467: Machine learning for physicistsMachine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practised. ...
CS-411: Digital educationThis course addresses the relationship between specific technological features and the learners' cognitive processes. It also covers the methods and results of empirical studies: do student actually learn due to technologies? In fall 2025, P. Dillenbourg w ...
COM-490: Large-scale data science for real-world dataThis hands-on course covers tools and methods used by data scientists, from researching solutions to scaling prototypes on Spark clusters. Students engage with the full data engineering and data science pipeline, from data acquisition to extracting insight ...
MGT-201: Introduction to entrepreneurshipThis course provides an introduction to the field of entrepreneurship, in particular the process of new venture creation and the commercialization of technologies. It integrates theories of entrepreneurship with a practical, process-based
project, where st ...
MATH-310: AlgebraThis is an introduction to modern algebra: groups, rings and fields. ...
COM-401: Cryptography and securityThis course introduces the basics of cryptography. We review several types of cryptographic primitives, when it is safe to use them and how to select the appropriate security parameters. We detail how they work and sketch how they can be implemented. ...
