Courses

CWI highly values education. CWI researchers not only supervise and inspire the CWI PhD students, but also aim at contributing to teaching Master's students at universities. See the overview of CWI's current involvement in teaching courses in the Netherlands below.

Contribution to education

CWI is a research institute and does not have education as an institutional task. However, many of the senior researchers of CWI contribute to education via an affiliation or part-time appointment at one of the Dutch universities.

The courses they teach are listed below in chronological order, starting with the earliest upcoming course.

Additive combinatorics

Additive combinatorics is a relatively new area of mathematics that brings together areas such as combinatorial and analytic number theory, Ramsey theory, harmonic analysis, graph theory, extremal combinatorics, algebraic methods, ergodic theory and probability theory.

Focus

To expose key ideas behind the Fourier-analytic and graph-theoretic proofs of Szemerédi's theorem, in addition to algebraic techniques used recently in breakthrough works for three-term arithmetic progressions in the finite-field setting.
