Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Understand the fundamentals of computer science
    • Use the vocabulary and the correct mathematical reasoning to formulate and solve problems in the field of computer science
    • Use and combine knowledge from different disciplines to solve multidisciplinary problems
  • Manage IT projects
    • Creatively implement knowledge and expertise gained in the field of computer science.
    • Demonstrate independence and their ability to work in teams.
  • Understand the fundamentals related to scientific methods
    • Develop skills of abstraction and modelling through a conceptual and scientific approach
    • Conduct rigorous reasoning based on scientific arguments

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.

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

Annual course.

Type of Assessment for UE in Q2

  • Presentation and/or works
  • Oral Examination
  • Practical test

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

The evaluation of the project is worth 15% of the final mark.  It is required to pass both the project and the oral exam.  If it is not the case, the final mark is min{0.15 P, 0.85 O} where P (resp. O) is the mark on 20 obtained at the project (resp. at the oral exam).
