- Ethics
- Scientific methodology
Mandatory for PhD students who teach
- Basic learning and knowledge of Higher Education course, or equivalent documented competence. It is mandatory for those who have teaching duties in the undergraduate education during their PhD studies
The Ethics course is preferably taken in the beginning of the PhD studies. The course in Methodology about a year after having begun the studies.
Mandatory courses for each specialization, if any, are listed
in the general study syllabus.
Recommended courses
Beyond the mandatory courses, there is a number of recommended common and specific courses. The common courses are of a more general character and of broad interest within the research area.
Recommended common courses
- Analog/digital system design
- Information theory
- Communication theory
- Convex optimization
