Welcome to the course!

We are delighted to have you here at SLU, Ultuna

You can find all course information here at the course page in Canvas. We will also use Canvas to communicate during the course, either through messages or in the form of announcements that appear at the top of this page. Previous year's course evaluations can be found on the course page on SLUs website.

First of all, please add a short introduction of yourself here. This is to make it easier for you to get to know one another and for us teachers to get to know you.

The course is structured around four themes where each theme contains a set of lectures, tasks and other activities. Each theme has its own module here on Canvas where you can find an introduction to the theme and instructions for tasks etc.

Below is an overview of the course schedule and activities. A calendar symbol () indicates scheduled activities and a paper-and-pen symbol () indicates due dates for tasks and other assignments. Scheduled activities marked with (!!!) have mandatory presence. By clicking on an activity you are redirected to the Canvas Calendar where you might find additional information. The schedule here on Canvas includes all activities and will be updated in case of any changes while schedules found in other places (e.g. TimeEdit) may be incomplete and outdated.

All course literature connected to the different lectures and other activities can be found here. On the same page we will also continuously add lecture slides and any other material connected to the lectures

A list of all teachers involved in the course including contact details can be found here.

This is a full-time course which means that all unscheduled time is time for reading course literature or working on course tasks.

If you need help finding your way around the campus, here is a map with the different buildings that will be used throughout the course indicated with red numbers.

Grading criteria can be found here.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions and we hope that you will enjoy this course!
