Learning Outcomes

General competencies

To gain insight in  solution methodes (covered in earlier courses) for certain types of scalar or vector valued differential equations and sensitivity of these solutions for variations in initial conditions. Intoduction to Hilbert space methods.

 

 

 
To be able to state and prove definitions and theorems from the course notes correctly. To comment on those writings orally. To be able to make links independantly and to answer 
questions requiring insight/open questions.
 
 
To be able to solve exercises similar to those treated during the tutorials and write up the answers in a correct and clear way.
 

Grading

The final grade is composed based on the following categories:
Oral Exam determines 50% of the final mark.
Written Exam determines 50% of the final mark.

Within the Oral Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:

  • Oral theory with a relative weight of 1 which comprises 50% of the final mark.

Within the Written Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:

  • Written exercises with a relative weight of 1 which comprises 50% of the final mark.

Additional info regarding evaluation

 

  Oral exam theory (open questions)  (50%) and written exam exercises (50%)

Allowed unsatisfactory mark
The supplementary Teaching and Examination Regulations of your faculty stipulate whether an allowed unsatisfactory mark for this programme unit is permitted.
