Qualification Goals
The students shall
- recognise the limits of standard procedures when the problem poses special challenges,
- learn to find solutions adequate to the problem,
- to understand in an exemplary way how concrete practical developments influence the challenges of applied mathematics,
- practice mathematical working methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of the ability to abstract, proof techniques),
- improve their oral communication skills in the exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion.
Prerequisites
