Compulsory Module 1: Introduction to Scientific Computing (15 ECTS-credits, 10 hours)
Prerequisites for registration: none
Learning Outcome: - The students know the most important application possibilities of scientific computing as well as its potential to provide interdisciplinary efficient answers to current questions in research, economy and society. They are aware of gender issues and gender relations in the natural and technical sciences. - Students understand aspects of conventional computer architecture particularly relevant to scientific computing, as well as useful techniques for software development and management, which also guide forms of collaborative work. They are able to implement simple numerical algorithms - basic components of more complex simulations - and to analyse their properties. - They can explain and apply the scientific principles and basic methods of mathematical modelling as a basis for simulation. They are able to analyse simple existing models, select and apply suitable ones from established procedures for their evaluation, and interpret the resulting data in a professional manner.
