General course objectives:
|
The course content is the mathematical basis for a broad range of technical fields and also provides a starting point for further studies in mathematics and applied mathematics. The dominating theme of the course is linearity. The goal is to give students the ability to employ fundamental tools of mathematics in theoretical studies as well as in applied projects. The use of modern computer software supports both of these aspects. |
