Objective
Course purpose
During this course you will expand the range of mathematical tools needed in your studies in the field of technology by studying the notion of a function and the use of functions in modelling different phenomena.
Course competences
EUR-ACE: Knowledge and understanding
You have the knowledge and understanding of mathematics and other basic sciences underlying your engineering specialisation, at a level necessary to achieve the other programme learning outcomes.
Learning outcomes
After completing this course you know the notion of a function, recognise the type of a given function and understand the properties of different kinds of functions.
Content
In this course, you will expand your range of mathematical tools by learning about the concept of functions and the use of different types of functions to model engineering phenomena. You will understand the concept of a function, identify different types of functions and their properties. You will learn how to use equations to consider functions and how to use different types of functions to model simple engineering phenomena. This course will give you a strong basis for applying mathematical methods in engineering.
