Note on registration: You can only register in TUMonline - even after admission, acceptance of a study place and payment of the semester fees - once the Admissions Office has checked all relevant documents and set them to "ok". A letter symbol in your applicant account means that documents have been received by the Admission Office but have not yet been checked. In this case, please wait until a green tick appears as the icon.

Documents for the pre-course on Moodle

With the registration for the pre-course you also have access to the Moodle course of the pre-course. There you will find all teaching materials and further info about the pre-course. Please note that we do not send any material via email.

Content

In the Pre-course Mathematics (LRG) we repeat essential topics from school mathematics. In addition, we address fundamental topics and concepts in engineering mathematics that you will encounter in the first semesters of your studies. Note that the latter are not assumed as prior knowledge. However, these will give you a first insight into your studies. The focal points are

  • Fundamental Concepts and Notation
  • Elementary Operations on the Real Line
  • Trigonometry
  • Vectors
  • Lines and Planes
  • Matrices
  • Analysis of Real-valued Functions
  • Complex Numbers
