Comment:
Samlæses med MM536

Prerequisites:
Knowledge of calculus corresponding to the courses MM555 or MM554.

Academic preconditions:
None

Course introduction
The course builds on the courses MM555 or MM554. The course will train the students to deal with scientific models by identifying and applying the relevant mathematical methods within analysis, including mathematical symbolic language and logical arguments.

The course gives an academic basis for studying the topics of mathematical and numerical analysis (MM533), the theory of ordinary  differential equations (MM507), statistics (ST521) that are part of the degrees  ‘minor in mathematics’.

In relation to the competence profile of the degree it is the explicit focus of the course to:
  • Give skills to use the appropriate mathematical reasoning and technical terms in real analysis; analyze and evaluate the theoretical and practical problems for the application of a suitable mathematical model; communicate using a  proper mathematical language in writing and orally
  • Give knowledge and understanding of basic concepts, theory and methods of mathematics; to conduct analyses using mathematical methods and critically evaluate scientific theories and models. 


Expected learning outcome
The learning objectives of the course is that the student demonstrates the ability to:
  • Apply methods and results from calculus to analyze and explain the behavior of the models presented during the course
  • Formulate and, using a mathematical symbolic language, carry out arguments relating to mathematical problems within the syllabus of the course
  • Solve mathematical problems within the syllabus of the course.
 


Subject overview
The following main topics are contained in the course:
  • Complex numbers.
  • Differentiation and integration of functions of one and several variables.
  • Basic concepts of differential equations.
  • Basic concepts of vector calculus.
Literature
There isn't any litterature for the course at the moment.

Website
This course uses e-learn (blackboard).

Intro phase: 28 hours
Skills training phase: 16 hours, hereof:
 - Tutorials: 16 hours

Educational activities
  • preparation of exercises in study groups
  • critical discussion of the concepts presented during the lectures.

 
Educational form
