The aim of this course is threefold: (1) to rehearse the fundamental mathematics knowledge for starting academic engineering studies;
(2) to make clear what is the expected mathematics level in academic engineering studies; (3) to establish a uniform starting level
for all students.

Content:
The course gives an overview of the principles and modern approaches in artificial intelligence.
The focus is on intelligent agents, reasoning under uncertainty, and making rational decisions.
Lecturer: Hendrik De Bie
Teaching language: Dutch
Content:
The student gains insight in solution methods for ordinary and partial differential
equations. The student also gains insight in the definition of line and surface integrals,
the underlying theoretical results and their practical computation.
Lecturer: Hennie De Schepper

Content:
The aim of the course is to provide insight in the basic concepts of the theory of
functions of one real variable and the application of the corresponding analysis
techniques. Moreover the student acquires skills in using these techniques and
applying them, as well in the mathematical modelling of basic problems from physics
and chemistry courses.

Content:
It is the aim of the course to provide insight in the basic concepts of the theory of
functions of several real variables and the application of the corresponding analysis
techniques. Moreover the students acquire skills in using these techniques and
applying them, as well as in the analytic and mathematical modelling of basic problems
from basic sciences.
Lecturer: Hendrik De Bie

Content:
The aim of this course is to provide insight in the basic concepts of analysis on curves
and surfaces, as well as skills in the manipulation of the nabla-operator. Additionally the
student gains insight in the Fourier method for solving partial differential equations
(wave equation, heat equation and the Laplace equation) and their corresponding initial
and boundary value problems, and skills in solving such problems as well by hand as
by Maple.
Lecturer: Marián Slodička
Teaching language: Dutch
Content:
The aim of the course is to provide introduction to some important approximation methods for boundary value problems
(stationary boundary value problems, evolution problems). Three large topics include finite difference methods, finite element methods
and mixed finite element methods.
Lecturer: Hennie De Schepper
Teaching language: Dutch
Content:
The aim of this course is to provide insight in the basic abstracts concepts of linear
algebra, by introducing them in a concrete way, through geometric examples and
applications. Meanwhile, students also gain insight in the structure of threedimensional
objects and they learn to apply algebraic and geometric techniques.
