The assessment is based on successful completion of the following tasks and activities:
• Written tasks throughout the course (e.g. CV, job application letter, technical report)
• Mandatory oral activities (job interview, pair presentation)
• Active participation (participation in class activities, contribution to discussions, home assignments).

Assessment scale

0-5

Teaching methods

Contact teaching, presentations, discussions, pair and group work, individual and collaborative online activities, self-study.

Learning materials

Materials in Moodle

Student workload

Classes at the campus and on Zoom
Independent work and self-study

Content scheduling

Contact teaching in period 1.

Completion alternatives

If the student has completed corresponding studies at another university or university of applied sciences or has extensive work experience where the working language is English, the student may apply for credit transfer or recognition of competence through HyväHot-system.

Such cases have to be discussed with the teacher at the start of the course, and the student may be required to complete additional assignments to demonstrate their knowledge and skills.

If your level of English is around 4-5, you can sign up for the intensive course ”A Fast Track to Professional English".

Practical training and working life cooperation

none

International connections

none

Further information

Please inform the teacher if you have a proposal for individual study arrangements.

• can solve exponential and logarithmic equations and apply them in engineering problems
• you know the basic calculations of matrices and know some applications
• can use the concepts and notations related to limit value, derivative and integral
• can interpret the derivative as a rate of change
• can determine the derivative and integral graphically, numerically and symbolically
• know how to solve application tasks, the modeling of which requires the use of a derivative or an integral
• are able to present and justify logically chosen solutions
• you know how to evaluate the reasonableness and correctness of the solutions you make

Content (course unit)

• exponential and logarithmic function
• exponential equation, logarithmic equation
• basic matrix concepts and calculations (sum, multiplication by a number, product, determinant, inverse matrix)
• solving a group of linear equations with matrices
• some matrix applications
• the concept of limit value in brief
• derivative of the graph
• derivative numerically
• calculating the derivative using the rules of derivation
• higher derivatives (used at the entry level)
• some applications of the derivative (e.g. differential and total differential, error estimation and extreme values)
• the definite integral graphically
• definite integral numerically
• calculating the integral function using integration rules
• basic theorem of analysis, definite integral symbolically
