Logic as a Tool for Modelling
Short or summer course

Logic is the study of different forms of reasoning. It can also be a useful tool for modelling diverse phenomena. This course starts with the basics, as we explain what is meant by logic and illustrate how we can use symbolic language to convey meaning more efficiently than natural language. We will introduce two core approaches to studying logic. The first is through semantics (meaning), and the second is through syntax. This way, we will demonstrate the power of logic as a tool, reinforced with concrete examples. Throughout the course, we will encourage students to think about how they can apply logic to other disciplines they are interested in and discuss their ideas with lecturers and peers based on the information in the tutorials.

ECTS
The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme of study. Its aim is to facilitate the recognition of study periods undertaken by mobile students through the transfer of credits. The ECTS is based on the principle that 60 credits are equivalent to the workload of full-time student during one academic year.
