The courses which will be given within the framework of the FLOW Graduate School can be divided into three different categories.
Block I corresponds to advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate studies, and consists of courses already developed by personnel at
MEK,
MWL or
NA. They are given on a regular basis.
Block II comprises intermediate level graduate courses which may also be taken by
interested Master students who meet the prerequisite of 60 ECTS credits in fluid mechanics from
Block I or from another University. In this way, we aim at improving the recruitment of students to the FLOW graduate programme. The courses in
Block II are developed by senior staff at the
Linné FLOW Centre. These courses provide 4 - 5 ECTS credits and will follow the usual KTH scheduling, so typically extending during one teaching period (7 - 8 weeks). The courses are listed
here, where equivalent courses from other University in Sweden are also reported. For graduate students in FLOW it is compulsory to take at least two such courses during their PhD studies.
Block III will consist of short advanced level courses with typically one week of lecturing followed by one week for a project assignment. These courses will be given by invited internationally recognized researchers/Professors (two to three per course). The topic will be chosen to fit one or several of the five different priority
research areas within FLOW. Two or three of the advanced courses will be given every year and are meant to attract national and international graduate students. They will mainly be given during the summer period. For graduate students in FLOW it is compulsory to take at least two such courses during their PhD studies.
