Osaamistavoitteet
The practical calculations in engineering are nowadays performed, almost exclusively, by computers. It is therefore necessary for an engineer to master the use of various mathematical softwares. During this course a student is made familiar, first of all, with the use of the so-called MathCad software in the solution of mathematical problems. With this software it is possible to perform numerical, as well as symbolic calculations, plot graphs, etc. After the course the student will know how to apply the MathCad software in problem solving in all those branches of mathematics and engineering she is made familiar with during her studies.
