Dr. Maindl provided a lot of cases to help me to understand the new language. The most useful thing is that this course provides not only practical modelling, but also the theoretical background of each model. Because of this, I can apply GAMS to my research well. I really appreciate his lecture.

Professor, South Korea

I liked the dynamics and the simplicity with which the content was shown.

I’d also like to thank you for this course. Both structure and content were outstanding. It is a shame no such course is offered for biologists…
