Mathematical Methods for Engineers 2

Mathematical Methods for Engineers 1

Essential Mathematics 2: Calculus

Essential Mathematics 1: Algebra and Trigonometry

UO R for Data Analytics

Calculus concerns the rate of change of a function with respect to its variable, which is geometrically represented by the slope of a curvilinear trajectory. All of science and engineering, including economics and finance, use calculus as a main tool. Understanding the technical aspects of today&#39;s information technology is not possible without calculus, and calculus has and will continue to have a crucial role in the development of the technologies of the future.The main devices in calculus are limits of real functions and their properties. The use of limits enables us to understand change simply and precisely. This is how areas of irregular shapes can be computed exactly, and how physical processes involving change can be fully understood.UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to up-skill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree. This is a course from UniSA Online’s Associate Degree in Engineering. When studying this course as a &quot;single subject&quot;, prior knowledge from MATH 1076 or equivalent will support your success.Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you. Access online academic and student support seven days a week, fit study around work and life commitments, view learning resources 24/7, and log in to the interactive online environment anywhere, any time and on any device.Should your course have an exam it will be scheduled for Australian Central Standard Time or Australian Central Daylight Time, depending on the time of the year.

Combine algebra, geometry, and limits to solve maths problems dealing with changes and rates of change. By studying calculus, you’ll unlock powerful tools for use in physics, engineering, and economics. Covers differential and integral calculus.

This course continues from what you have learnt in Mathematical Methods for Engineers 1. Some mathematical methods are used frequently in many engineering disciplines, and this course aims to develop your knowledge of these methods  During the course, you will extend your knowledge and understanding of linear equations, matrices and ordinary differential equations. You will also continue the use of the MATLAB software to assist in the modelling process. UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.  Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you.

This course gives you the skills to use mathematical tools for modelling. We start by looking at the basics of modelling and then learn how differentiation and integration tools can be used for modelling engineering problems. During the course, you will also be introduced to the use of software (MATLAB) to assist in the modelling process.  UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to up-skill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree. Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you.

In this course, you’ll be introduced to a powerful statistical computing software called R. R is a software with built-in functionalities to assist you in statistically analysing and visualising big sets of data with ease. As an open-source software, developers also continuously build packages and libraries that can be loaded into R to simplify complex statistical operations.  This course revisits basic concepts of statistics such as measures of centrality and distributions. You’ll also be introduced to different methods of hypothesis testing, as well as other statistical concepts. By the end of this course, you’ll leave with the skills to use R to analyse and solve statistical problems in various contexts. UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.  Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you.

This is a foundation-level course designed to increase confidence and ability in mathematical skills, particularly in the areas of elementary algebra, trigonometry, and linear algebra. There is also a focus on formulating problems in mathematical language, and communicating appropriately in mathematics.This course may be the first experience of serious mathematics. At this level, mathematics often requires persistence and approaching problems from different perspectives. Mathematics problems can sometimes be like puzzles — frustrating, but very satisfying once solved. This course will guide you through every step of the way.UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to up-skill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree. Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you.
