Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes

It is the most basic introductory course of Mathematical Analysis of the complex space. The student begins to understand the notion of complex numbers and their properties. He/she learns about the use of the complex numbers field in solving some real numbers problems. The student learns about the elementary complex functions and then he/she learns about the line integral as well as the complex integral of such functions. Especially, the advantage of such integrals and their important properties are emphasized. Finally, the student learns the use of complex integrals in computing improper integrals of real functions.
