Department

Institute of Mathematics and Descriptive Geometry (MAT)

Entry knowledge

Basics of the theory of functions of one and several real variables (derivative, partial derivative, limit, continuous functions, graphs of functions, integral). Basic operations with matrices and vectors. Notions randomn variable, basic properties in the theory of probability, notions in the theory of estimation, basics of the theory of testing.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Extent and forms are specified by guarantor’s regulation updated for every academic year.

Aims

Give the students a basic understanding of the theory of probability. Students should be able to interpret the basics of mathematical statistics.
Teach the students how to evaluate data focussing on finding solutions to "unsolvable" systems of linear equations with minimum errors.

Study aids
