ILP Network of Excellence

ILP educational materials

ILPnet2 is organizing a number of educational activities, such as summer schools or seminars,
many of which are aimed toward end users (see Events).

ILPnet2 also aims at making a variety of ILP educational materials available to prospective
teachers and students. These include on-line versions of lectures/slides and syllabi of ILP or
ILP related courses taught at universities or other institutions. The lists below are not exhaustive
and will grow throughout the duration of ILPnet2.

ILP and ILP related university courses
