The focus of this course lies in the theoretical aspects of modern information technologies, principally, the design and analysis of algorithms, computational complexity, and discrete mathematics related to computer science.
Two introductory graduate classes are provided, neither of which is designed solely for international students. Introduction to Algorithms and Informatics is an introductory class for non-specialists. Lectures cover various aspects of modern computer science, particularly the fundamentals of algorithm design and analysis, data structures, and important concepts such as linear programming, randomization, heuristics and approximation. Theory of Computational Complexity is an introduction to the field of computational complexity, which aims at classifying computational problems according to their difficulty by investigating the amount of resources needed to solve them.
The class covers both the foundations of computational complexity and more advanced topics such as hardness of approximation and communication complexity. For both classes no specific technical background is required. Other classes given in English are System Verification, System-Level Design Methodology for SoCs, and Atmospheric Measurement Techniques. Students can also take the general Perspectives in Informatics seminars, as well as classes in the other two international courses offered by the School of Informatics.
