Mathematic Analysis I and Linear Algebra

Teaching Methods

The classes are of theoretical and theoretical-practical type, so that they are of expository nature and should include examples and exercises that lead the students to understanding and applying the material being taught. The teaching methods in the theoretical components will be predominantly expository. In the practical components problems will be solved under the guidance of the teacher. The independent resolution of problems must be encouraged. The transformation of concepts into working tools will be achieved by encouraging personal work.

Learning Outcomes

The main goal of the course is to introduce the basic tools from Differential and Integral Calculus for functions of several real variables and Complex Analysis. To learn how to solve linear difference and differential equations of constant coefficients with the help of Z- transform and Laplace transform, respectively, and apply this knowledge to model and solve problems. The relevance of the results presented in terms of the applications should be emphasized. It is also intended that students acquire a knowledge of the concepts in order to assess the scope and limitations of the materials studied and their applications.

The course aims at developing the following skills: analysis and synthesis, organization and planning, oral and written communication, problem-solving skills and computational ability. On the personal level it also allows to develop self-learning skills and independent thinking.
