Learning outcomes

The purpose of this course is to give opportunity for the students to apply their basic mathematical skills in an applications oriented project. After the course the student should be able to:

• explain how some basic concepts and methods from linear algebra and differential and integral calculus can be used in simple applications close to the education programme,
• set up, discuss and evaluate some mathematical models for applied processes that are relevant to the education programme,
• understand basic applications which are presented in mathematical language, and give oral and written presentation of own mathematical calculations and results.

Course main content

Simple applications of basic linear algebra and differential and integral calculus. This may include, for example, applications of linear equations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, linear differential equations with constant coefficients, optimization, integral calculus or basic vector analysis. The exact contents may vary.
