Group schedule
Find your group number in the table below and look up when and where your seminar will be. The seminar is about 50 minutes, and it is important to be on time. Notice the odd starting times (10 minutes past)!
The seminar will be a walking seminar, starting from the meeting place.
If you absolutely can not participate in the walking seminar, for example because you are sick or belong to a risk group and can not get to Campus, a Zoom seminar is offered as an alternative, see below.
