Competences

  • Actively demonstrate high concern for quality when defending or presenting the conclusions of one’s work.
  • Apply critical spirit and thoroughness to validate or reject both one’s own arguments and those of others.
  • Assimilate the definition of new mathematical objects, relate them with other contents and deduce their properties.
  • Students must be capable of applying their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional way and they should have building arguments and problem resolution skills within their area of study.
  • Students must develop the necessary learning skills to undertake further training with a high degree of autonomy.
  • Students must have and understand knowledge of an area of study built on the basis of general secondary education, and while it relies on some advanced textbooks it also includes some aspects coming from the forefront of its field of study.
  • Understand and use mathematical language.
