The pleasant anticipation may already be great and perhaps before the start of the study, there is a lot to do. TUM Campus Straubing offers a variety of introductory events so that you can get started with your studies without any difficulties.
Preliminary courses
At Campus Straubing, we offer various preliminary courses. In these courses, you review important fundamentals, for example in mathematics or physics. The preliminar courses are available to all students at our campus.
We are offering a Mathematics Precourse for all first-year students to refresh important mathematical concepts from secondary school and prepare you for the Mathematics 1 lecture.
The topics covered in the precourse will not be repeated in detail during the regular lecture, as they are considered fundamental background knowledge. Therefore, we strongly recommend participating if you feel unsure about your current mathematics skills or would like to review the essential concepts before the semester begins.
Contents of the Mathematics Precourse
- Mathematical Logic and Set Theory
Introduction to logical statements, basic proof techniques, sets, set operations, and mathematical notation. - Number Systems
Review of natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, and real numbers, including their properties and relationships. - Equations and Inequalities
Methods for solving linear, quadratic, and other common types of equations and inequalities. - Trigonometric Functions
Review of sine, cosine, and tangent, their geometric interpretation, important identities, and basic applications. - Complex Numbers
Introduction to complex numbers, their algebraic and geometric representations, and basic arithmetic operations.
