How can I attend lectures and lab sessions?

  • Lectures (Wed 8:15-10:00) will take place in the Rolex Forum. Lectures will be recorded and the recordings will be made available on EPFL MediaSpace Playlist the day after the lecture at the latest.
  • Lab sessions (Fri 15:15-16:45) will initially take place in BCH 2201, CE14, GCC330. Later on, we may consolidate in fewer rooms, depending on your attendance.

For best practices regarding course-related communication, please read the communication guidelines.
