The course "Thematic Cartography" is part of section U.4. “METHODS AND TECHNIQUES” of the interdepartmental joint Greek-French Postgraduate Program "Population, Development, Foresight" organized in collaboration with the French University of Bordeaux IV.
This course covers basic concepts and tools of thematic cartography while focusing on representation and visualization of demographic data.

Exercise in developmental ages
Vassilis / Konstantina Gerodimos / Karatrantou - Undergraduate -
(A-)
Department of Physical Education and Sports Science, University of Thessaly
The aim of the module is the acquaintance of students with exercise in the developmental years for health purposes. Special emphasis is given in planning and implementing strength, power, aerobic capacity, speed and flexibility training programs for children and adolescents.

Topography of Ancient Rome
Giannis Lolos - Undergraduate -
(A)
Department of History, Archaeology and Social Anthropology, University of Thessaly
Rome was founded towards the end of the 7th century BC and evolved progressively into the most important city in the Mediterranean and the capital of the Roman empire. In the course of the semester we shall follow this evolution via the monuments of the city, from the beginnings and the Etruscan presence to the centuries of the Republic and of the Empire down to the period of the Tetrarchy (4th cent. A.C.)

Integer programming and combinatorial optimization course is a course of the 6th semester of the department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Thessaly. During the semester the students are taught the basic knowledge of linear integer and mixed integer programming. Students are taught heuristic and exact solution approaches and algorithms through small, medium and large scale examples. Finally, through detailed toy examples from the bibliography as well as real case examples from the industry the teaching focuses on modeling technics. Students get experience on modeling approaches in order to get the ability to develop robust and compact mathematical models for real case studies.

Dynamics
Costas Papadimitriou - Undergraduate -
(A-)
Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Thessaly
The course is involved with the study and description of dynamic motions of bodies subject to external forces. The kinematics of a point are developed, where the motion is studied without taking into account the forces that cause it, and the relative translational motion is studied. Next, the kinetics of point particles are studied, where the motion is related to forces through Newton/Euler laws of motion, the principles of thrust and momentum, and the principles of work and energy. Next the analysis is generalized to the kinematics of rigid bodies and the following motions are studied : translational motion, rotation around a steady axis, planar motion, rotation around steady point, general spatial motion, and relative motions with respect to rotating coordinate system. The kinetics of rigid bodies is developed through Euler equations, principles of thrust and momentum, and principles of work and energy.

Health Education
JULIA NISSIOTOU - Undergraduate -
(A+)
Department of Special Education, University of Thessaly
During this course are presented the essential knowledges a teacher mast have to promote health and health education of his students, and the basic knowledges concerning his personal health: common infectious diseases, prevention methods- vaccinations, basic of sexual education, relation between Nutrition and Health, Mediterranean nutrition pyramid.

This course examines issues related to the philosophy and practice of inclusive education for students with disabilities. In particular, the course traces the major stages of thinking in the development of inclusive education and the legislative changes in Greece and internationally. It provides overviews of the main theoretical influences: the medical and the social model. Complex issues, critiques and effective practices towards the inclusion of students with SEN and disabilities in the mainstream school are discussed. In this course students will have the opportunity to explore and develop further their personal philosophy towards inclusion. Also, they will learn tools for curriculum design (differentiated instruction), instructional strategies and collaboration which will help them to effectively include students with SEN and disabilities in their classrooms.

The cells communicate between them via an enormous variety of extracellular chemical signals. The aim of the course is to describe the structural and biochemical properties of signalling molecules and their regulation, the interaction of signalling proteins of the various levels of signal transduction, to work out the basic principles of cellular communication and describe the interplay of various signalling pathways in central cellular processes like cell cycle regulation, tumorigenesis and apoptosis. The course concentrates on signalling and regulation in animal systems. Plant systems could not be considered and results from lower eukaryotes and prokaryotes are only cited if they are of exemplary character.
