Seminar on Mathematical Logic |
Time: We 17-19
Place: P.016
Course language: English
Intended Audience: Students of the MSc Mathematics and MSc Logic
Goal. Students need to learn to read research papers and present mathematical ideas. The goal of this seminar is to give students an opportunity to train their reading skills in mathematics and learn how to present.
Content. Selected research papers will be handed out to the students who then have to read them, understand them and present them to the seminar.
