DAPE2000 Mathematics 2000 with Statistics Course description

This course, together with Mathematics 1000, will give students an understanding of mathematical concepts, issues and solution methods with the focus on applications. The course will also give students an understanding of concepts in statistics and probability theory, problems and solution methods with the focus on applications in their own field and in the engineering field in general.

The course builds on DAFE1000 Mathematics 1000.

No requirements over and above the admission requirements.

The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can take the exam:

• A compulsory Orientation Meeting.
• A project outline that describes how the group will organise their work on the project.
• A standard learning agreement must be entered into between the project provider/supervisor and the student(s), and this must be approved by an internal supervisor before the project can begin.
• Three minutes of meetings from the supervision meetings held during the project period.

The deadline for submitting the project outline and the minutes of the meetings will be presented in the teaching plan, which is made available at the beginning of the semester.

A portfolio exam consisting of:

1. A written project report, individual or in groups (max 5 students), 3000 words +/-10 %

2. An oral presentation, individual or in groups (max 5 students), 10 minutes + 5 minutes Q&A

The exam result cannot be appealed.

The portfolio is assessed as a whole and given a single grade, but both the project report and the oral presentation must be passed in order for the portfolio to receive a grade E or higher.

For group projects, all members of the group receive the same grade. Under exceptional circumstances, individual grades can be assigned at the discretion of the project supervisor(s) and Head of Studies.

All aids are permitted, as long as the rules for source referencing are complied with.
