Maths for Engineers III module (GA20007)

​​This module continues the development of mathematics most relevant to engineering practice, covering material required for the accreditation of engineering degree courses.

Building on Maths for Engineers I and II, you will study statistics and probability, further integration techniques, and vectors and matrices.

The module is delivered through lectures supported by material on My Dundee, with built-in tutorial sessions where you can get individual guidance and feedback.

Assessment consists of two class tests (75%) and two low-stakes assignments (25%), with one class test and one assignment per semester.

This module is delivered as part of a Graduate Apprenticeship, with teaching taking place one day a week on Dundee's City Campus. 

​What you will learn

​In this module, you will: 

• ​Apply mathematical methods in statistics and probability, integration, and vectors and matrices.
