Learning outcomes of the course unit

The knowledge of a solution of simple tasks, particularly those of the physical character. Making a background for the analysis of functions of more variables.

Prerequisites

Elementary knowledge of mathematics on the level of the secondary school. Linear and quadratic equations, inequalities, elements of
the geometry of lines and planes.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

A course-credit unit is obtained for an active participation in practices. It is a necessary condition for siting for the examination,which consists of both test ond oral parts. 30% of the total rating of a subject is formed by the rating from practices.

Course curriculum

1. Elements of linear algebra and analytical geometry
2. Differential calculus of functions of one variable
3. Integral calculus of functions of one variable
4. Differential calculus of functions of more variables
5. Elements of the theory of ordinary differential equations (ODE's) and the computation of the most simple kinds of ODE's

Work placements

Not applicable.

Aims

The aim of the course is making the basic concepts of mathematics necessary for managing the following courses of physics, chemistry and engineering disciplines. Another claim is to get up the basic principles of mathematical thinking and skills and apply them in the above mentioned courses.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

The regular participation on practices and obtaining at least 50% of marks from control works are the necessary conditions for obtaining the credit. In control works, not only calculus skills are checked but also the ability of their application to simple practical problems. Besides the recognition of control works for credit, a student is motivated for obtaining the maximum of marks which are up to 30% included to the complex rating of the subject. If a student fails at a control work, he has a possibility of its correction. If there are serious reasons, an alternative conditions may be imposed.
