Crash Course Math 2 | NITO

Crash course in math 2

NITO Students at NTNU Ålesund are arranging a crash course math 2 for those who want to understand more, stress less and be better prepared for the exam!

This course is designed for students who are going to take math 2 who want to get even better control of the central topics that are in the exam.

Functions of several variables- Partial differentiation, gradient, critical points and optimization

Taylor’s theorem with residual terms

Equilibrium equations– examples: the Laplace and Poisson equations

Time-dependent systems– examples: the heat equation, the advection equation and the wave equation

Fourier series (possibly also Fourier transformations)

The selection of topics has been made to reachas many students as possible, by focusing on material that is common to several courses and fields of study.

The course instructor does not know the content of the specific exam, and the course is arranged by NITOindependently of the university. The goal is to provide better understanding, overview and confidence in the run-up to the exam.

Øystein Grøndahl has over 15 years of experience teaching mathematics, physics, programming and other subjects in higher education. He is known for explaining the material in a clear and structured way, focusing on making the essence clear and reducing the room for misunderstandings. The course includes both:

Pizza will be served during the course.Any allergies or other considerations must be stated when registering.
