Requirements / organisational issues:
The aim of this course is to provide students with a survey of nuclear theory at the graduate level, and an introduction to modern nuclear theories and topics. While the focus is on theoretical aspects of nuclear physics, when possible, the subject will be linked to recent experimental progress and to applications, e.g. to astrophysics. 

Recommended prerequisites (if any): Quantum mechanics and Electromagnetism
 

Contents:
Introduction to nuclei and modern nuclear forces
Few-body methods for nuclei
Many-body methods for nuclei
Nuclear reactions
Nuclear astrophysics and formation of the elements
