Course detail

Selected Chapters from Constructive Geometry

FSI-0KD Acad. year: 2025/2026 Winter semester

The course familiarises students with the fundamentals of three-dimensional descriptive geometry, theory of engineering drawing and graphical method of solving space or solid analytic geometry problems. Presentation of these concepts will enable students
to understand descriptive geometry who will be able to relate it to engineering and technology.

Language of instruction

Entry knowledge

Students are expected to be familiar with the fundamentals of geometry and mathematics
at the secondary school level.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Course-unit credit is conditional on an active attendance at seminars.
If a student does not satisfy the given conditions, the teacher can set an alternative condition.

Aims
