Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Susan Pulham
Lecturer:
Nane Neu

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be able to mathematically model technical and business-related problems. They will be able to apply the mathematical techniques of differentiation and integration in one variable to given functions (abstract questions) and to concrete commercial and technical questions. They will be able to construct linear systems of equations from verbal problems and solve them. Students will be able to derive linear optimization models from verbal problems and solve them graphically. They will be able to give examples of applications for mathematical methods from the aviation industry.
They will have improved their collaboration skills by working on the mathematical material in learning teams according to the didactic concept of learning team coaching during the semester and by working on and presenting exercises.
The presentations help students improve their communication skills. They will have improved their reflection skills in feedback discussions with fellow students and the teacher. Students will have improved their self-organization skills by working according to the inverted classroom concept.
