Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After completing the course, the PhD students should:
- have tools and training to recognize convex optimization problems that rise in applications
- be able to present the basic theory of such problems, concentrating on results that are useful in computation
- have a thorough understanding of how such problems are solved, and some experience in solving them
- have the background required to use the methods in their own research work or applications.

Examination and completion
Grading scale
P, F
Examination
- SEM1 - Seminars, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- PRO1 - Project, 4.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Oral and written presentation of the solution of a relevant optimization problem related to your own research, 7,5 hp, Grading: P/F
Other requirements for final grade
Approval of oral and written presentation of problem assignment.
