Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
After the course the student will be able to
- evaluate multiple integrals in cartesian, cylindrical and spherical coordinates,
- analyze the properties of vector fields,
- evaluate line and surface integrals of vector fields,
- calculate the gradient, divergence and curl, and knows what they represent,
- explain the idea of Gauss and Stokes theorems, and apply them in calculations.
