Overview

The Mathematics course at Distance University is designed according to the premise of lifelong knowledge – not just lifelong learning. It is a modern mathematics course directly related to applications and the digitalized world. The world today is, to an increasing extent, an algorithmic one. A solid understanding of algorithms is therefore ever more important and will be developped throughout the Bachelor's degree course. It enables the students to acquire lasting skills, which can be built upon at any time and can be used universally.

Key Features

The course places emphasis on both the theoretical fundamental principles of mathematics and applications. The first modules start at an elementary level, while still conveying a sense of the abstractness and demands of mathematics. From the start, great emphasis is placed on clear concepts and logical inferences. The curriculum takes into account the hierarchical structure of mathematics. You will first acquire a thorough understanding of the fundamentals, which form the basis of the more advanced topics. At the same time, the course has a strong applied focus.
