MATH-437: Calculus of variationsIntroduction to classical Calculus of Variations and a selection of modern techniques. The Calculus of Variations aims at showing the existence of minimisers (or critical points) of functionals that n
MGT-499: Statistics and data scienceThis class provides a hands-on introduction to statistics and data science, with a focus on causal inference, applications to sustainability issues using Python, and dissemination of scientific result
MATH-487: Topics in stochastic analysisThis course offers an introduction to topics in stochastic analysis, oriented about theory of multi-scale stochastic dynamics. We shall learn the fundamental ideas, relevant techniques, and in general
ENV-513: Multivariate statistics in RData required for ecosystem assessment is typically multidimensional. Multivariate statistical tools allow us to summarize and model multiple ecological parameters. This course provides a conceptual i
MATH-431: Theory of stochastic calculusIntroduction to the mathematical theory of stochastic calculus: construction of stochastic Ito integral, proof of Ito formula, introduction to stochastic differential equations, Girsanov theorem and F
ME-425: Model predictive controlProvide an introduction to the theory and practice of Model Predictive Control (MPC). Main benefits of MPC: flexible specification of time-domain objectives, performance optimization of highly complex
ENV-320: Physics and chemistry of the atmosphereThe course provides an introduction to the physical and chemical processes that govern the atmospheric dynamics at small and large scales. The basis is laid for an in depth understanding of our atmosp
