These lectures are designed to be very interactive and complement (deepen) the theory that students are expected to get to know beforehand.

Lectures should be delivered in the period from January to March; ideally on a weekly basis and can take place from Monday to Friday, 9.00 am until 4.00 pm.

Would you like to pass on your practical knowledge to our students? Whilst teaching, you will pass on your practical experience to our students and engage in a lively exchange with them. What is particularly important to us is that freelancers are also part of our teams: they benefit from the exchange of ideas and mutual support and can fully contribute their expertise.
