Main Objectives
1. Preparation of undergraduate of mathematics to applying mathematical methods, model approach, and numerical experiment for solving applied problems in the professional work.
2. To give an experience in applying the knowledge’s acquired in courses of mathematical analysis, differential geometry, differential equations, partial differential equations, probability theory, numerical methods, and computer sciences in:
- Formulation of problems,
- Analytical study of these problem using mathematical models,
- Formulation of differential models,
- Choosing a numerical method,
- Creation of algorithms and programs in a high-level language,
- Carrying out a numerical experiment,
- Representation of results of simulations.
Learning Outcomes
After drawing on the course «Mathematical models and their applications», the student must:
Know main differential models and ways of their construction;
Be able to understand the posed problem, intelligently use the language of the subject domain, form a mathematical model, adequately choose the method for resolving the model, and formulate the result;
Have skills in analytical study of models, applying MATLAB for a software implementation of an algorithm, carrying out a numerical experiment, and visual representation of investigation results.
