Students from other graduate schools, or post-docs from other universities will be charged 100 euros in cash because of the course material, social events, and other practical arrangements. Participation fee for representatives from the industry is 200 euros in cash. Due to our limited resources, the organizers reserve the right to limit the number of participants to the courses.
