At the end of the course, the students should be able to:
5. demonstrate a clear understanding of the
Course Outline
, that is, possess a breadth of
knowledge in the area covered;
6. possess an in-depth knowledge upon which a solid foundation can be built in order to
demonstrate a depth of understanding in advanced mathematical topics;
7. develop simple algorithms and use computational proficiency;
8. write simple proofs for theorems and their applications; and
9. communicate the acquired mathematical knowledge effectively in speech, writing and
collaborative groups.
