UK Dynamical Systems Graduate School

2008-2009


The courses are directed at graduate students of all levels and have no non-standard pre-requisites. They follow the model of the higly successful courses given in the previous academic years 2005-2006, 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. Applications should be made for each course separately, as early as possible, but in any case no later than two weeks before the course.   For instructions, follow the appropriate links below. For other enquiries, please contact Stefano Luzzatto (stefano.luzzatto@imperial.ac.uk). There is a registration fee of 100 GBP per course, which will be waived for students with lack of financial support.
