AIMS AND CONTENT

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

One of the course objectives is to provide basic knowledge of computer operation in order to promote a conscious use of them.

The course aims to provide the fundamentals of technical-scientific programming to solve problems related to civil engineering. During the course, students are introduced to programming concepts in Matlab and Excel environments and address issues related to data processing, reading and writing data and results from and to files, and presenting the results graphically and textually to find solutions to common aspects of civil engineering.

TEACHING METHODS

Theoretical lectures

Guided exercises conducted by the teacher

 

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

  • Basic description of computer operation.
  • Description of the main programming constructs, with a particular focus on the MATLAB language.
  • Basic description of the functionality of spreadsheets (MS Excel).
  • Exercises with technical-scientific problems and examples of solutions using programming and/or spreadsheets

RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY

Lecture notes and instructions are available in the Aulaweb space reserved for the course, for both the theoretical and programming components.

EXAMS

EXAM DESCRIPTION

The exam consists of completing a programming exercise on the computer. This will be followed by an oral discussion on the topics covered during the course.

ASSESSMENT METHODS

The evaluation of the programming exercise will be based on the completeness and correctness of the results obtained, the logical structure and correctness of the program, and adherence to the syntax of the programming language.

In the oral interview, students must demonstrate their ability to present clearly, as well as their capacity to critically rework and effectively use the knowledge acquired.
