Scientific Disciplinary Sector (SSD)
MAT/05 - MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS
Period
Semester 1 dal Oct 1, 2024 al Jan 31, 2025.
Courses Single
Authorized with reserve
Learning objectives
The course aims to provide knowledge about basic calculation methods in the fields of mathematical and statistics analyses. Specifically, the part of mathematical analysis includes functions, limits, derivatives and integrals, while the part relating to statistics includes basic concepts of descriptive statistics, probability, distributions and hypothesis testing. The course also provides the basic statistical knowledge for planning experiments, collecting and analysing data, interpreting and presenting results. The skills to be transmitted include knowing how to use the theoretical notions of mathematics and statistics to solve problems that are commonly faced in the practice of a generic food laboratory.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Adequate knowledge and mathematical and scientific skills typical of the training provided by the upper-level secondary school are required.

Didactic methods
Lectures and exercises. Lessons will be delivered exclusively in presence. In case of limitations due to COVID, upon presentation of the relative request, supports such as video recordings or additional teaching / bibliographic material will be provided.
Learning assessment procedures
The exam consists of an oral test covering topics from two sections: mathematics and statistics.
In the mathematics section, the student will need to solve and discuss some exercises, both practical and theoretical, related to the course topics. In the statistics section, the student must be able to analyze provided data series.
Exercises and examples of how the exam may be structured are available on the course’s Moodle platform.
The exam format does not differ between attending and non-attending students.
Evaluation criteria
To pass the exam, students must demonstrate that they:
- have understood the fundamental elements of mathematics and the principles of statistics;
- can solve exercises explaining their reasoning in a rigorous way;
- know how to apply the acquired knowledge to solve concrete problems related to the topics of the course and presented as exercises.
