Course objectives

The course aims to deepen the knowledge of mathematical tools needed to solve the economic problems and to familiarize students with common types of optimization problems and show some basic methods for their solution (especially the simplex method for linear optimization). Mentioned are also some specific optimization problems and their applications in   economics, project management, production management and quality management. The lectures will explain the mathematical principles used in solving these optimization problems and exercises will be supplemented with examples of real problems and motivated to use the software (Maple, Matlab and its Optimization toolbox, MS Excel)

Teaching methods

Theoretical training includes lectures, practical exercises using computer

Assessment methods

The course is ended by an examination. The prerequisite of successful completion of the course is active participation in seminars. The rating is determined by point gain from the final test. Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam (credit test) by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
