Engineering Maths 2

Course description

This is an Unit within Engineering Group Awards, may be part of other Group Awards, or can be taken as a stand alone HN Unit. The Unit provides learners with opportunities to develop knowledge, understanding and skills to solve problems involving trigonometric and hyperbolic functions and identities; to differentiate and integrate a wide range of functions and use differentiation and integration techniques to solve engineering problems. This Unit is designed to develop the necessary mathematical skills required of learners seeking to use a Higher National Diploma in Engineering as an exit qualification for an Engineering workplace role or as a pathway to further studies in mathematics at an advanced level.  Students must successfully complete each Outcome. Outcome 1: Solve trigonometric and hyperbolic function problems Inverse trigonometric ratios Compound angle formulae Basic trigonometric identities Hyperbolic functions Basic hyperbolic identities Outcome 2: Use differentiation techniques to solve Engineering problems Differentiation of standards functions Chain Rule Second derivatives Rates of change Optimisation Outcome 3: Use integration techniques to solve Engineering problems Indefinite and definite integrals Integration of standard functions Applications of integration There are two costs associated with this course: The fee of £130.00 is without the £14.00 SQA registration fee. “Please see www.nescol.ac.uk for course without SQA Registration fee” The fee of £144.00 includes the £14.00 SQA registration fee.
