Main objectives of the course:
Studying the course student will get basic knowledge of the theory of linear algebra and the theory of abstract algebraic structures, which enable their use in solving technical problems in engineering practice but also an understanding of advanced methods of modern algebra.
After completing the course the student:
– Knows the basic concepts, arguments and methods of modern algebra,
– Can identify algebraic problem
– Has the ability to apply acquired knowledge to solve practical problems.

Course requirements: Continuous assessment / evaluation: The condition for the successful completion of exercises on the subject is systematic work on exercises assessing compliance with the following criteria: - Passing the first written test at 6 weeks of the semester ( max. 30 points) - Passing the second written test at 12 weeks semester ( max. 30 points) - Active exercises (eg. Address specific tasks) Students can refer to test if for work during the semester obtained at least 30 points. Final assessment /evaluation: The condition for the successful completion of the course is to obtain at least 60 out of 100 points for the semester work and passing the examination of the subject. The test is will focus only on practical problem solving and to demonstrate theoretical knowledge in broken 20 + 20 points. Credit will not be awarded to a student who all parts of the test did not receive at least 10 points. The final assessment of the subject: 100-92 A 91-84 B 83-76 C 75-68 D 67-61 E To enroll for an exam student must have 30 points. | |||||||||||||
