Qualification Goals
Students
- are able to classify practical problems in terms of applicable procedures and the effort involved,
- understand various procedures, their different areas of application and their differences in terms of efficiency and universality,
- recognize how to build up and analyze solution methods from different basic procedures for complex tasks,
- understand, in the core topic of iterative methods for large systems of equations, the construction of efficient methods by combining building blocks of different characteristics,
- have deepened mathematical working methods(developing mathematical intuition and its formal justification, abstraction, proof),
- have improved their oral communication skills in exercises by practicing free speech in front of an audience and in discussion.
