This course consists of two on-site modules (Sprint 1 and 3), which take place two weeks apart, with a homework module in between. During both on-site modules, you will have the opportunity to discuss your own project with the course leaders and your peers, reflect and work on planning your project. Sprint 1 focuses on theory. In Sprint 2, you can take what you have learned, apply it to your project and gain some initial experience. During Sprint 3, the primary focus is on discussions with your peers and receiving coaching from the course leaders.

Access to and participation in our courses will be barrier-free. Please contact us in advance at +41 44 632 21 35 or at info@library.ethz.ch so that we can optimally meet your needs.
