Rec. self-study hours: 200

  Area of Education: Science

Subject area: Mathematics

  Advancement level (A-D): D

Aim:
To give an understanding of the possibilities and limitations of mathematical modelling as a method for solving real-world problems. By discussing mathematical ideas and different ways of attacking a problem, and by writing a report, the student is trained in both oral and written communication. The work is done in a group and follows a project plan which is prepared with the help of a project management model, LIPS, specially designed for the Y programme. Thus the student is trained in project management and gets experience in working in a group.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
The compulsory mathematics courses of the Y programme. Within the course different projects are offered so additional prerequisities may be required depending on which project is chosen.

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
One lecture to present the projects and possibly some basic theory. Project work in consultation with the supervisor.

Course contents:
Depends on the chosen project.

Course literature:
Previous course literature and additional literature depending on the project.

Examination:
Written and oral presentation of the project.
