Eligibility:

In order to be eligible for a first cycle course the applicant needs to fulfil the general and specific entry requirements of the programme(s) that has the course included in the study programme.

Aim

This introduction gives basic knowledge about some discrete mathematical structures in different contexts, in particular those that have connection to and are suitable for computing.

Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)


  • have insights in fundamental mathematics important when studying Technology, especially within computing science and information Systems.

  • have insights, skills and understanding in using, the mathematical language.

  • communicate mathematics
