Mathematical Modelling and Simulation (Wintersemester 2018/19)
- Dozent*in: PD Dr. Gudrun Thäter
- Veranstaltungen: Vorlesung (0109400), Übung (0109410)
- Semesterwochenstunden: 2+1
The general aim of this lecture course is threefold:
1) to interconnect different mathematical fields
2) to connect mathematics and real life problems
3) to learn to be critical and to ask relevant questions.
We start on October 15th with the lecture - no problem class yet since we work throughout the semester on the projects instead.
