Mathematics

Meet and complement the basic concepts and principles of higher mathematics and their applications in science and technology. Developing thinking skills specific to problem solving: understanding the problem, finding appropriate data rescue plan, rescue, checking compliance solutions and analysis solution. Expression of the mathematical reasoning and use it in the science and technical research.
