Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
Mathematics is an essential part of the engineering programmes. Nevertheless, it is not a a goal on its own, but rather a necessary tool for understanding the technical subjects.
Therefore, we aim to both introducing the basic mathematical concepts and deepen the logical and analytical thinking of our students.

Summary
The subject is divided into four chapters.
In the first chapter we study real functions of one real variable and their properties, in the second chapter we introduce the notion of derivative and study its properties and applications.
In the third chapter we introduce Gauss elimination method for solution of systems of linear algebraic equations. In the last chapter we apply it to the geometric problems in three-dimensional Euclidean space.

Other requirements
The exam consists of the following three parts: Computation of the derivatives of elementary functions (5 tasks, 15 minutes), the practical part (6 problems, 60 minutes, maximum 60 points) and the theoretical test with 10 questions (correct answer 2 points, no answer 0 points, wrong answer -1 point).
A student has to compute correctly 3 derivatives, obtain at least 25 points at the practical part and at least 5 points at the theoretical test.
