Office hours

Each instructor and some of our Teaching Assistants (TAs) have office hours each week, during which you can go and ask them anything related to the course. If you need help with the assignments, or you have problems understanding something, you can go to a TA or instructor during his/her office hours.

If you need to see any instructor or TA outside their office hours, please ask them for an appointment by email.

The list of TAs, with their office hours is found below.

You can also ask questions by e-mail. Each month there will be a TA assigned to answer questions by e-mail. The list of TAs in charge of e-mail is found below.
