Course Description
This course covers the processes regulating states and flows of mass and energy in the soil-vegetation-atmosphere system. The course emphasizes the energy exchange and water cycle. It also offers an in-depth overall picture of the system as well as the interactions between the various physical and biological processes. Students learn measuring techniques for relevant variables and parameters in an ecosystem. This knowledge is crucial for developing sustainable ways to manage land-based ecosystems. The course provides broad and advanced theory of the most important energy exchange processes in the interface between the atmosphere and the vegetation/land mass. In order to analyze the interplay between different processes within ecosystems, students use a simulation model of the energy exchange and the water-balance. The course also instructs students on how to use sensor technology and methods to measure and store abiotic and biotic variables and parameters using data logs and other instruments.

Course Description
This course gives the student the opportunity to study specialized topics of their interest within an area of machine design that may not be covered by the traditional courses. For students from abroad, this course opens up the possibility to choose a project related to a course that they may not be able to participate in. Students may choose their own project topic or select one proposed by the supervisor or an outside company. Students are responsible for establishing their own timelines for the theoretical study part of the project, carry out their study independently of regular lectures, and prepare a final report on their findings/results.

Course Description
The course gives a basic understanding of concepts within the field of semantics and pragmatics using problem oriented exercises to highlight different traditions, including structural-typological semantics, logical semantics, cognitive semantics, and pragmatic theories of meaning. The course addresses philosophical issues such as: What is meaning? What is the relationship between meaning, world, and mind? Emphasis is placed on more linguistic issues such as: Do different languages have different systems of meaning? What is the relationship between the meaning and structure of language? Is meaning dependent on context?

Course Description
Software engineers encounter different programming languages throughout their career. While each new language brings with it new libraries and marketing terms, the underlying key concepts of these languages are typically selected from a relatively small pool of programming language concepts. This course gives students an overview of and familiarity with those common concepts to allow them to better understand and more quickly adapt to new languages. In addition, the course supports students who work on the design of (domain-specific) programming languages in getting a broader overview over their design choices.
