Learning Outcomes:
1. Recognising the possibilities, advantages and risks of applying computational methods and simulation tools in engineering problems
2. Realizing the role of verification, validation and uncertainty quantification in computational science and engineering
3. Understanding of the theoretical foundations of the most relevant computer methods applied in civil engineering: finite element methods (FEM), finite difference methods (FDM) and collocations methods (CM)
4. Ability to apply the most relevant numerical methods in civil engineering (FEM, FDM, CM) by implementing well-structured simple programs for solving basic engineering problems
5. Ability to apply the general-purpose software tools (FEM) for solving engineering problems from different subfields of civil engineering for solving basic engineering problems
