1. Chap. 8: Calculus of variations. 
2. Chap. 9: Nonvariational techniques.  
3. Chap. 3.4 & 11: Conservation laws.

*Benoit Perthame, Kinetic formulation of conservation laws, Oxford University Press, 2002*

1. Chap. 2: Preliminary material (kinetic tools). 
2. Chap. 3: Kinetic formulation of conservation laws.  
3. Chap. 5: Regularizing effects (averaging lemmas). 

If time permits, a quick introduction to stochastic partial differential equations , e.g. parabolic and hyperbolic PDEs driven by temporal Ito noise.
