Nachdiplom lectures
Nachdiplom Lectures are given by distinguished guest professors, and are designed for an audience on a graduate level or higher. Nachdiplom lecturers are carefully selected by a committee consisting of members of the Department of Mathematics together with the FIM and the Zurich Graduate School of Mathematics.
Many of the lectures have been turned into books published by the EMS Publishing House in the Zurich Advanced Lectures in Mathematics series.
