Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes	The objectives of the course are: The acquisition of background from the students on the basic structures and techniques of Functional Analysis, as independent knowledge as well as a tool for the other branches of Analysis, so that they will have the potential to apply the knowledge they get in applications.
General Competences	The course aims to give the postgraduate student the ability to analyse and synthesize advanced concepts of Functional Analysis. The goal is to acquire the skills for autonomous work and teamwork in an interdisciplinary environment and to able to produce new research ideas.
