SYNTHETIC PROGRAM
GENERAL OBJECTIVE:
The student will solve mathematical problems by applying the techniques of numerical methods, performing
algorithms and functional programming in order to interpret results.
SYNTHETIC CONTENT:
I. Solution of Equations.
II. Solution of Simultaneous Linear Equations.
III. Interpolation and Functional Approximation.
IV. Functional Approach.
V. Numerical Integration.
VI. Differential Equations.
VII. Applications.
METHODOLOGY:
Inductive-deductive learning will be used, or vice versa, to promote active and constant participation of the
assistants in the search, reading, and analysis of the information that enables the integration of aspects
theoretical, practical, analysis and problem-solving in the classroom and in the computer lab.

In the professional field of engineering, it is necessary to use mathematical models for prediction and explanation.
of certain phenomena.
An essential mathematical model for the mechanical engineer is that of numerical methods; as they serve him.
as a calculation tool.
From the above, the need arises to implement its study in the second semester of the engineering degree.
mechanics, so that the student, by acquiring its mathematical, geometric, and analytical foundations, achieves their
subsequent application.
This subject is based on the subjects of Differential and Integral Calculus and Fundamentals of Algebra, and is
a basic subject that supports various topics of the automotive systems engineering subjects.
At the end of the course, you will solve mathematical problems by applying the techniques of numerical methods. Performing
algorithms and functional programming in order to interpret results.
