Osaamistavoitteet
After completing the course the student will identify graph and network structures in modeling. The student masters basic concepts, vocabulary, tools and properties of graphs and networks, and is able to use them in simple examples and modeling tasks. The student also masters basic graph-theoretical algorithms and is capable of implementing them in simple examples and applications. Completing the course gives the student skills for modelling and analyzing models using graph-theoretical methods. Nowadays these methods form perhaps the most general modelling tool in discrete mathematics and algorithmics, and therefore it is simply not possible to include outcomes for them all within a single course. Completing the course the student nevertheless should be able the generalize and extend the skills.

Ohjeita opiskelijalle osaamisen tasojen saavuttamiseksi
Final grade is determined from tutorial activity and the final closed-book exam. Passing the course requires passing the final exam, and for this at most half of the maximum points are required. Bonus points obtained by tutorial activity may be used to add the exam points according to a given scheme. A thorough mastering of the core content should be sufficient for passing the course with grade 3. To get the degree 4 at least some complementary knowledge is usually required, getting the grade 5 then requires a more thorough mastering of this knowledge.
