Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Have acquired highly specialised and integrated knowledge and broad skills in the various disciplines of computer science, which come after those within the Bachelor's in computer science.
  • Manage large-scale software development projects.
    • Apply, mobilise, articulate and promote the knowledge and skills acquired in order to help lead and complete a project.
    • Demonstrate independence and their ability to work alone or in teams.
  • Manage research, development and innovation.
    • Understand unprecedented problems in computer science and its applications.
  • Master communication techniques.
    • Communicate, both orally and in writing, their findings, original proposals, knowledge and underlying principles, in a clear, structured and justified manner.
  • Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
    • Aquire new knowledge independently.
  • Apply scientific methodology.
    • Demonstrate thoroughness, independence, creativity, intellectual honesty, and ethical values.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this teaching, the students will master the basis of numerical analysis in both its mathematical and implementation aspects.  They will be able to use their knowledge to solve problems.

Content of UE

Numerical methods for root finding, numerical errors, linear systems, polynomial interpolation and least squares, ordinary differential equations.

Prior Experience

Continuity and differientiability of functions of a single real variable (including the assiated theorems, Taylor expansions,...), ability to solve linear ordinary differential equations with constant coefficients, linear algebra (linear applications, representation in a basis, linear systems,...), basic mechanics (Newton's laws).  Ability to program in at least one computer lanbguage.  Ability to perform rigorous and precise reasonings.
