Objective
Course purpose
During this course you rehearse and reinforce mathematical knowledge and skills needed in the beginning of your studies.
Course competences
EUR-ACE: Knowledge and understanding
Knowledge and understanding of the mathematics and other basic sciences underlying their engineering specialisation, at a level necessary to achieve the other programme outcomes.
Learning outcomes
After completing this course you recall basic algebraic operations and rules for numbers and symbols, and formulas related to common geometric shapes. You understand the difference between an expression and an equation. You are able to apply what you have learned to solve simple problems related to your own field of study.
Content
Basic algebraic operations, the notion of square root, rules for exponents, simplification of polynomial expressions and simple rational expressions, simple linear and quadratic polynomial equations, percentages, simple geometry and trigonometry for right triangles, basics of functions, verbal problems.
Location and time
The initial level test is during the start week according to the time table of each degree program. Contact learning is during 22.8. - 7.10., and its schedule is given on the front page of the course.
Oppimateriaali ja suositeltava kirjallisuus
Material is in the learning environment.
Teaching methods
Course is web-based course before the new student's start week. For those who don't pass the initial level test during the start week this course is in contact learning.
Exam schedules

Evaluation scale
Pass/Fail
Assessment criteria, approved/failed
You are able to simplify simple polynomial- and rational expressions and evaluate expressions numerically. You recognise the difference between an expression and an equation. You can explain how simplifying an expression differs from the process of solving an equation. You are able to solve simple linear and quadratic polynomial equations. You can solve the edges and angles of right triangles. You can solve simple problems with equations. You know the notation for functions, are able to read the values of a function from a graph, and compute values of a given function using the functions expression. You recognise the equation of a line, are able to draw the line by using it, and you can determine the equation of a line from a picture.
Further information
The course is meant to be taken before compulsory mathematical studies in technology. The course also offers good mathematical acquirements for studies on other fields than technology.
