PHYS-431: Quantum field theory IThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions. ...
MATH-310: AlgebraThis is an introduction to modern algebra: groups, rings and fields. ...
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-314: Quantum physics IIThe aim of this course is to familiarize the student with the concepts, methods and consequences of quantum physics. ...
HUM-369: Humanités digitalesCe cours explore comment les Humanités se transforment à l'ère de l'intelligence artificielle et des données massives. Chaque séance aborde le futur d'une discipline. Les étudiants développent un prototype numérique (Vibe coding) pour accelerer la recherch ...
MATH-317: Algebra V - Galois theoryGalois theory lies at the interface of Field Theory and Group Theory. It aims to describe the algebraic symmetries of fields. We will focus on Galois theory for finite field extensions and some applications. ...
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 ...
COM-501: Advanced cryptographyThis course reviews some failure cases in public-key cryptography. It introduces some cryptanalysis techniques. It also presents fundamentals in cryptography such as interactive proofs. Finally, it presents some techniques to validate the security of crypt ...
PHYS-432: Quantum field theory IIThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions such as Quantum Electrodynamics. ...
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 ...
ME-372: Méthode des éléments finisL'étudiant acquiert une initiation théorique à la méthode des éléments finis qui constitue la technique la plus courante pour la résolution de problèmes elliptiques en mécanique. Il apprend à appliquer cette méthode à des cas simples et à l'exploiter pour ...
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. ...
PHYS-512: Statistical physics of computationThe students understand tools from the statistical physics of disordered systems, and apply them to study computational and statistical problems in graph theory, discrete optimisation, inference and machine learning. ...
AR-219: CAO avancée et modélisation intégrée DIM1ère année: bases nécessaires à la représentation informatique 2D (3D).
Passage d'un à plusieurs logiciels: compétence de choisir les outils adéquats en 2D et en 3D.
Mise en relation des outils de CAO et DIM: regard critique et aptitude à choisir les métho ...
HUM-465: Understanding modern Switzerland IIBased on the knowledge acquired during the fall semester course (Understanding modern Switzerland I), students are asked to work by group of 3-4 students and prepare a paper on a topic previously discussed with the teachers. ...
MATH-225: Topologie II - groupes fondamentauxOn étudie des notions de topologie générale: unions et quotients d'espaces topologiques; on approfondit les notions de revêtements et de groupe fondamental,et d'attachements de cellules et on démontre le Théorème de Seifert-van Kampen. Des exemples de surf ...
