MGT-418: Convex optimizationThis course introduces the theory and application of modern convex optimization from an engineering perspective.
ENG-410: Energy supply, economics and transitionThis course examines energy systems from various angles: available resources, how they can be combined or substituted, their private and social costs, whether they can meet the energy demand, and how
MATH-600: Optimization and simulationMaster state-of-the art methods in optimization with heuristics and simulation.
