Mathematical Techniques and Problem Solving

In this module, students will explore the fundamental mathematical concepts and techniques that are essential for engineers in their problem-solving endeavors. Mathematics forms the backbone of engineering, providing the tools and language necessary to analyse and solve complex problems in various fields. While this module will cover mathematical techniques that are necessary to help you succeed on other masters-level modules, throughout the module, we will emphasise problem-solving strategies and practical applications, connecting the mathematical concepts to real engineering scenarios.

By the end of this module, students will have developed a strong mathematical foundation and problem-solving skills, enabling them to tackle complex engineering challenges with confidence. Whatever sector you work in, the mathematical techniques and problem-solving strategies covered in this module will be invaluable to your future engineering success.
