Content (Syllabus outline)

The student independendly learns a major topic from his specific research field. The topic and literature is determined by the mentor.

Readings

Študent literaturo izbere v sodelovanju s svojim mentorjem.

The literature is chosen in cooperation with the mentor.

Objectives and competences

The student learns a specific topic, needed for the in-depth research work in his or her research field.

Intended learning outcomes

Knowledge and understanding: The student will get acquainted with the key results in his specific research area on the level that facilitates their usage when tackling original research problems.

Application: The acquired knowledge and skills will be used in original research and proving new results.

Reflection: The acquired knowledge will be appropriately reflected.

Transferable skills: The skill of understanding deep mathematical arguments and the usage of classical results in original research work.

Learning and teaching methods

Individual study and consultations.

Assessment

Homework and oral exam. Grades: pass, fail.
