Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Conditions for awarding the course-unit credit (0-100 points, minimum 50 points):

  • submitting all the assigned homework,
  • written test (at least 50 of possible 100 points); students who fail to score 50 points will be allowed to resit the test during the first week of the examination period.

Conditions for passing the exam (0-100 points, minimum 50 points):

  • written test (maximum 85 points),
  • discussion about the test and the oral part of the exam (maximum 15 points),
  • maximum 100 points, the overall classification is given by ECTS grade scale.

Lecture: Attendance at lectures is obligatory and checked, only one unexpected absence is allowed, absence may be compensated for based on an agreement with the teacher.

Seminar: Attendance in seminars is obligatory and checked, only one unexpected absence is allowed, absence may be compensated for based on an agreement with the teacher.

Syllabus


  • Basis of mathematical logic (premise, logical connective, quantifiers).

  • Complex numbers (algebraic and trigonometric forms, operations with complex numbers, Euler’s identity).

  • Vector, Cartesian coordinate system (free and bound vector, operations with vectors, scalar and vector products, magnitude of the vector).

  • Matrices (matrix, operations with matrices, determinant, inverse of a matrix, system of linear algebraic equations).

  • Analytic geometry (problems involving straight lines and planes in 2D and 3D spaces, e.g., intersection, distance, angle, etc.).

  • Functions of one real variable (notion of a function, graph, basic properties, basic elementary functions, vector function).

  • Differential calculus of functions of one variable (limit, L´Hospital rule, continuity, derivative, differential, linear and quadratic approximations, Taylor polynomial).

  • Behaviour of functions of one variable (monotonous functions, convex and concave functions, inflection points, local and global extremes, asymptotes).

  • Integral calculus of functions of one variable (Riemann integral, antiderivative, Newton-Leibnitz formula, indefinite integral, basic techniques of integration).

Exercise
