Closing
Seminar January 25-26, 2007, 10.00 – 12.00
During the course each
student should prepare a term paper and present it at the closing seminar.
The term paper should
be reviewed by at least two reviewers also participating in the course.
The paper may not
exceed 10 printed pages.
Each term paper gets a
30 minutes slot in the program (20 minutes presentation and 10 minutes
discussion.) The discussion will be started by the reviewers. We have time for
a little longer presentation if needed.
