How to Study & komex Tracks

Short, Compact or Main

The ekomex short courses are held online over a course of 2 days (4 contact hours / study day). This includes lecture-style sessions based on prepared scripts, independent exercises, discussion of solutions, and small-group tutoring sessions.

The in-person komex compact courses take place over a course of three days from 09.00-14.30h every day (4 contact hours/study day). This includes a mixture of lecture-style sessions, applied lab/training sessions, as well as office hours/independent work sessions:

  • 9:00-10.30h: Course (e.g. lecture)
  • 10:30-11:00h Break
  • 11:00-12:30h: Course (e.g. lab)
  • 12:30-13:30h: Lunch break
  • 13:30-14:30h: Course (e.g. supervised small group work)


Both the in-person komex and ekomex main courses take place over a course of five days from 09.00-14.30h every day (4 contact hours / study day). This includes a mixture of lecture-style sessions, applied lab/training sessions, as well as office hours/independent work sessions. A typical ekomex online course structure would be: 90’ asynchronous materials, 90’ synchronous lab, 60’ independent small group learning/office hour, with a mix of asynchronous and synchronous activities and diverse learning. Please check the course site for the specific timetable of the online course you are interested in (indicative, changes are still possible).

komex Tracks

Participants can freely combine different komex courses in a sequence. In particular, we recommend the following tracks for combining komex courses. However, given the intensive workload that come with such a course, it is not possible to take two komex courses in parallel. Please make sure to have the prerequisite knowledge indicated in the description of your course.
