The module descriptors for our undergraduate courses can be found below:
- Four year Aeronautical Engineering degree (H401)
- Four year Aeronautical Engineering with a Year Abroad stream (H410)
Students on our H420 programme follow the same programme as the H401 spending fourth year in industry.
The descriptors for all programmes are the same (including H411).
H401
Mathematics 2
Module aims
This module builds on first year Mathematics and introduces more advanced concepts including Vector Calculus, Partial Differential Equations, Complex Analysis, Probability, and the theory of Signals and Systems.
Learning outcomes
7. Apply Fourier series and Fourier transforms to analyse periodic and aperiodic signals, including the response of linear systems to such signals.
Module syllabus
Teaching methods
Learning will be reinforced through tutorial question sheets.
Assessments
You will be summatively assessed by written examinations in both the Spring and Summer terms.
Assessment type | Assessment description | Weighting | Pass mark |

You will receive feedback on examinations in the form of an examination feedback report on the performance of the entire cohort.
You will receive feedback on your performance whilst undertaking tutorial exercises, during which you will also receive instruction on the correct solution to tutorial problems.
Further individual feedback will be available to you on request via this module’s online feedback forum, through staff office hours and discussions with tutors.
