Syllabus Information

5.1. Methodological overview

The methodology of the course is based on:

• Lectures.
• Problem solving.
• Computer lab sessions using mathematical software.

5.2. Learning tasks

In order that students get the learning outcome, the following learning activities are offered:

1. Lectures and problem solving

One of the main resources in order a student gets the corresponding learning outcome are lectures mixed with problem solving.

2. Computer lab sessions

Students spend parts of their time doing a wide range of computer lab work in small groups.

3. Problem solving for each topic in the program

Students, divided into small groups, will solve a set of problems for each topic in the program.  Feedback on assessment will be provided.

4. Continual assessments (written exams)

5. Tutorial

6. Final exams

5.3. Syllabus

This is a typical matrix-oriented module of Linear Algebra for Engineers.

 Outline:

• Algebraic structures
• Matrix Algebra: Matrices, determinants and linear systems of equations
• Vector spaces
• Orthogonality
• Linear transformations
• Eigenvalues, eigenvectors and diagonalization of matrices
• Numerical methods for linear systems

5.4. Course planning and calendar

Schedule of classes is stablished by EINA and EUP de Teruel, and it will be published before starting the academic year.

Each Professor will provide a schedule for tutorial.

Other activities will be scheduled according to the number of students and will be announced in advance (http://add.unizar.es).
