Competences

Technical Competences

Technical competencies

  • CE1 - Skillfully use mathematical concepts and methods that underlie the problems of science and data engineering.

    • Transversal Competences

    Transversals

  • CT5 - Solvent use of information resources. Manage the acquisition, structuring, analysis and visualization of data and information in the field of specialty and critically evaluate the results of such management.
  • CT6 [Avaluable] - Autonomous Learning. Detect deficiencies in one's own knowledge and overcome them through critical reflection and the choice of the best action to extend this knowledge.

    • Basic

  • CB1 - That students have demonstrated to possess and understand knowledge in an area of ??study that starts from the base of general secondary education, and is usually found at a level that, although supported by advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that imply Knowledge from the vanguard of their field of study.

    • Generic Technical Competences

    Generic

  • CG2 - Choose and apply the most appropriate methods and techniques to a problem defined by data that represents a challenge for its volume, speed, variety or heterogeneity, including computer, mathematical, statistical and signal processing methods.
  • CG5 - To be able to draw on fundamental knowledge and sound work methodologies acquired during the studies to adapt to the new technological scenarios of the future.

    Teaching methodology

    Theory classes will be in the form of master classes in which the contents of the subject will be explained and examples and illustrative problems will also be given.
    In the problem classes, problems will be solved on the topics studied in theory.

    Evaluation methodology

    There will be two exams: a mid-course exam EP (which does not release a subject) and a final exam EF; in addition solved problems will have to be delivered and/or answer quizzes AC.

    The grade of the subject in the ordinary call will be calculated as follows:

    NF=max{0.60*EF+0.25*EP+0.15*AC; 0.75*EF+0.25*EP; EF}

    There will be an extraordinary exam (EX). The grade in extraordinary call will be the grade obtained in EX.
