Learning activities and teaching methods
Lecture
Learning outcomes
The course aims to introduce students to the fundamental concepts and methods of linear algebra. Emphasis is placed on understanding the relationships between matrices, systems of linear equations, and vector spaces. Students will master techniques for solving algebraic problems, ranging from elementary row operations to advanced studies of the properties of finite-dimensional Euclidean spaces.
Upon completion, the student will be able to: Perform matrix operations (addition, multiplication, transposition) and determine their properties. Efficiently solve systems of linear equations using the Gauss-Jordan elimination method and Cramer's rule. Calculate determinants of matrices and use them to determine regularity and calculate inverse matrices. Work with vector spaces and subspaces, and determine their basis and dimension.
Prerequisites
Algebra 3.

Assessment methods and criteria
Mark

Active knowledge of the course subject matter. Specific requirements (including individual assignments for term papers) are specified in the respective MS Teams group. Regarding active physical attendance, a minimum of 49% is required for both full-time and part-time students. For students with an Individual Study Plan (ISP), the minimum attendance is 20% (specific ISP requirements must be consulted in person with the instructor at the beginning of the semester).
