Please find below a general list of NBP lectures and seminars (past, current, upcoming) as well as of some courses that are tightly associated with NBP, lay important foundations or proceed to more advanced topics, and are open to our students. Again, for more detailed information you may use the StudIP interface to access the wealth of lecture notes and papers available for this term and also for former ones.

• Action & Cognition, Lecture by P König (winter & summer / Bachelor, 2nd year)
  (For some years now, AC1 and AC2 lectures have been video recorded regularly. You will find them termwise on StudIP ; thus you can still watch lessons you missed and may also follow-up past ones repeatedly for easy exam preparation.)
