After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

solve exercises in the context of the lecture Basic Mathematics and Statistics for Spatial Planning (matrix calculation, basic features of the financial mathematics, descriptive statistics, graph theory, index numbers and measures,probability therory and distributions, inference statistics).

Exercises for the course Basic Mathematics and Statistics for Spatial Planning  (Matrix-Algebra, Financial Mathematics, Descriptive Statistics, Graph Theory, Probability and Distributions, Inferential Statistics)

Tasks are provided weekly and can be prepared by students for the exercises and presented on the blackboard. In addition, exams must be taken during the semester.

The course is an elective subject in the study.

The course is planned as a distance course, i.e. there will be exercises at defined times that will be held online. All further details will be discussed at the preliminary discussion (= preliminary discussion of the lecture). Attendance is compulsory in the UE!

• 2 tests (20 points each) during the semester, both must be passed positively (greater than or equal to 50%), at least 4 points per test. A re-exam is offered for hard cases. 
• Attendance is required and you have to visit the group for which you are registered.
• Points are awarded for prepared examples that are voluntarily presented on the board. (1 or 2 points, students can gain up to 6 points  per semester)
• Presence is also assessed

Good command of the computing techniques of school mathematics (upper level AHS, BHS or equivalent vocational higher schools).
To refresh and to compensate for any deficits, reference is made explicitly to the mathematics approximation course at TU Wien (see previous courses). These contents are briefly repeated in the course, but are essentially required.
