Academic year 2018/2019 |
Supervisor: | doc. Ing. Luděk Nechvátal, Ph.D. | |||
Supervising institute: | ÚM | |||
Teaching language: | English | |||
Aims of the course unit: | ||||
The goal is to acquire knowledge of fundamentals of differential and integral calculus of one real variable functions. Beside theoretical background, students should be able to apply the calculus tools various technical problems. | ||||
Learning outcomes and competences: | ||||
Use of calculus methods in physical and technical disciplines. | ||||
Prerequisites: | ||||
Secondary school mathematics knowledge. | ||||
Course contents: | ||||
A subject area main content consists in the differential and integral calculus of a one variable function. The acquired knowledge is a starting point for further study of mathematical analysis and related mathematical disciplines, and it serves as a theoretical background for study of physical and technical disciplines as well. | ||||
Teaching methods and criteria: | ||||
The course is lectured through lessons supported by exercises at seminars. The content of lessons is focused on a theoretical background of the subject. The exercises have a practical/computational character. | ||||
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes: | ||||
Course-unit credit: active attendance at the seminars, successful passing through two written tests (i.e., from each of them, it is necessary to reach at least one half of all possible points). Exam: will have both a written part as well as an oral part, a condition for admission to the oral part is receiving at least one half of all possible points from the written part). |
||||
Controlled participation in lessons: | ||||
Seminars: obligatory. Lectures: recommended. |
||||
