The promotion of logical reasoning, methods of analysis and the theoretical development of mathematical concepts is fundamental to support the study of the majority of course units along this programme of studies.

This course unit aims to introduce the basic fundamental concepts of Linear Algebra, Vector Algebra and Analytic Geometry.

The student must have basic knowledge of trigonometry, functions of a real variable, analytical geometry and systems of linear equations.

Justification The mathematical analysis is an indispensable tool for a engineer. Objectives Provide the requisite mathematical foundations for the formation of an engineering professional.

It aims to act as a continuation of Mathematical Analysis I.

The objectives of this transversal skills curricular unit are:

• Present the open source philosophy and its impact on software development;
• Provide a comprehensive understanding of the Linux operating system and its basic principles;
• Develop practical navigation and operation skills in the Linux environment;
• Develop the ability to customize and optimize Linux systems for various applications;
• Promote problem-solving skills in the management and troubleshooting of Linux operating systems.

In this way, it is intended that students recognize the advantages of customizing the operating system to meet specific needs and improve efficiency in its use as a work tool.

The promotion of logical reasoning, methods of analysis and the theoretical development of mathematical concepts is fundamental to support the study of the majority of course units along this programme of studies.
This UC aims to ensure the acquisition of solid knowledge in numerical techniques for solving engineering problems, which are of vital importance, as well as to familiarize them with the most varied methods and their implementation, advantages and disadvantages of its application in solving numerical problems. It is intended that students develop numerical manipulation capabilities as well as independent and analytical thinking and ability to apply mathematical concepts to solve practical problems. The students will be able to choose the most efficient methods for the solution of each basic Numerical Analysis problem. The students are expected to understand the theorems and convergence conditions of each of the methods described, to be able to program them, to test them effectively and discuss the results obtained.
The students are supposed to know the subjects taught in Linear Algebra and Mathematical Analysis.

The promotion of logical reasoning, methods of analysis and the theoretical development of mathematical concepts is fundamental to support the study of the majority of course units along this programme of studies.

This UC aims to ensure the acquisition of solid knowledge in the calculation of probabilities and statistics, considered an essential tool in many areas and situations of uncertainty, fundamental in Engineering. Another objective is to develop in students the ability to communicate accurate when referring to subjects that are based on concepts of Probability and Statistics. This UC also intends to develop a critical attitude when necessary to the analysis of statistical problems as well as the ability to apply the concepts acquired solving them. The acquisition of fundamental knowledge will give students the ability to acquire more advanced concepts that arise in the course and / or professional.

The student must be acquainted with basic notions on trigonometry, real functions, derivatives and integration.
