Third part - evaluation

TimeDecember 7
09-10 OB and MS: Evaluation of reports and oral presentations
10-11 OB and MS: Evaluation of reports and oral presentations
11-12 OB and MS: Evaluation of reports and oral presentations
Report:
Each participant must prepare a report (2-4 pages) on a freely chosen topic from Nonlinear Dynamics. The report may be an investigation of a nonlinear system using the methods taught at the course or a survey of the literature on a topic within nonlinear dynamics.
Oral presentation:
Each participant must present his report orally in a 20 min. public lecture.
