Description

This module provides you with core mathematical skill and science knowledge required to undertake undergraduate study in a range of engineering disciplines. Using laboratory activities and software tools it will teach you to understand and apply core concepts and principles in an Engineering Context. It sits alongside and integrates with the two other core modules in the foundation programme.听

As well as lectures, you will participate in tutorials where you will be able to work in small groups to practice module concepts, including mathematics and simple programming, and you will have regular laboratory sessions where you will be working with other students to carry our experiments.听听There are no additional costs for the laboratories 鈥� you will be provided with all the necessary laboratory equipment and consumables.听

听

By the end of this module, students will be able to:鈥��

  1. demonstrate knowledge and understanding of Pure Mathematics: Quadratics, Functions, Coordinate Geometry, Circular Measurement, Trigonometry, Logarithmic and exponential functions, Vectors and Scalars, Series, Differentiations, Integration, numerical solutions of equations, differential equations, complex numbers.鈥�

  1. select and apply appropriate mathematical models relevant to probability and statistics: Representation of data, permutations and combinations, probability, discrete and continuous random variables, normal and Poisson distribution, sampling and estimation.鈥��

  1. demonstrate a foundational level of knowledge and understanding of the scientific principles on which physics, mechanics and chemistry in engineering are based.

  1. identify where appropriate pure mathematical concepts and mathematical models can be used to solve abstract and real-world problems.鈥�

  1. Identify where appropriate key elements of physics, mechanics and chemistry and their scientific principles can be used in the development of solutions to simple real-world problems.听

  1. Demonstrate engagement with self-directed learning to facilitate personal development in core mathematics and engineering science learning.听

  2. Conduct simple physics experiments and present your findings in a written account.
