- CB5: Students can develop the necessary learning skills to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy.
Specific proficiencies
- CE1: Ability to solve mathematical problems in engineering. Ability to apply theoretical knowledge on: linear algebra; geometry; differential geometry; differential and integral calculus; differential equations and partial differential equations; numerical methods, numerical algorithms, statistics and optimization.
- CG2: Adequate knowledge of the physical problems, technologies, equipment, and water and energy supply systems, the limits imposed by budgetary factors and building regulations, the relationships between installations and/or buildings with farms, agro-food industries and spaces related to gardening and landscaping with their social and environmental surroundings, as well as the need to relate those surroundings from that environment with human needs and environmental protection.

Evaluation
| Learning outcome | Evaluation system | Weight (%) | Possibility of resit |
| R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, ENAEE-1 | Written exam on the calculus concepts. At least 3 points out of 10 are required in this exam to pass the subject in the continuous evaluation. | 43 % | YES |
| R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, ENAEE-1 | Written exam on the algebra concepts. At least 3 points out of 10 are required in this exam to pass the subject in the continuous evaluation. | 42 % | YES |
| R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, ENAEE-1 | Individual assignment. | 15 % | NO |
In case of not getting at least 3 points out of 10 in the written exams corresponding to the continuous evaluation, the student should go to the resit exam if wishing to pass the subject.
The resit evaluation is made through a unique written exam that corresponds to algebra and calculus. It represents the 85 % of the final grade. The students not passing the subject in the continuous evaluation are allowed to take this exam.
The students passing the subject in the continuous evaluation can improve their grade by taking the resit exam.
If a student takes at most one of the written exams (either algebra or calculus) will have the condition of "No presentado".
