Detail předmětu

Mathematics 1

FAST-BAA021-AAk. rok: 2026/2027

The aim of the subject is to deepen and reinforce the knowledge acquired from high school mathematics.

Students will learn new procedures and mathematical methods, enhance their logical thinking to be able to understand and apply the knowledge gained in their specializations. Students should also learn how to analyze a problem, choose the appropriate procedure, select the right calculation method, and evaluate the result, which should lead to critical thinking.

The subject is divided into tree topics: the first one focusing on the fundamentals of linear algebra; the second one dealing with the differential calculus of a single variable, and the third one being dedicated to the basics of integral calculus.

Pravidla hodnocení a ukončení předmětu

Attendance at seminars is mandatory and monitored. In the semester weeks 7 and 11, two written credit tests are scheduled to decide about the eligibility of students for being granted credits for the seminar. Students will be eligible for credit if receiving at least 40 percent of the maximum total number of points that can be obtained from both tests. 

The st Students who fail to obtain the required number of points will be allowed to write a retake credit test. The exam will be written. The grading of the exam will be based on the ECTS scale as published in the BUT Study and Examination Regulations. 

Učební cíle

Professional knowledge
  • Introduction to matrix calculations and its application in solving systems of linear equations. Understanding the basic concepts of differential and integral calculus of functions of one variable and the geometric interpretation of certain concepts. Being acquainted with the use of vector calculus.
  • Professional skills
    • The students will be trained in differentiating and integrating function and they will learn how to solve the problem of function behaviour. They will manage matrix calculation, elementary transformations, and calculation of determinants and inverse matrices, being also able to solve systems of linear algebraic equations (using Gaussian elimination and applying the inverse matrix).
    General competence
    • The student will be able to continue further studies that require the knowledge of this subject.
