Course Objectives: | The goal of this course is to provide a mathematical foundation to students; to extend students’ knowledge and skills in mathematics and to prepare them for more advanced studies in mathematics. Throughout this course, students will be introduced to the following topics; limits, differentiation, integration, multivariable calculus and applications of them. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Extend their knowledge and skills in mathematics and get prepared for more advanced studies in Mathematics. 2. Apply limits and continuity. 3. Define a derivative, apply differentiation rules. 4. Understand the concept of marginal revenue, marginal cost, marginal propensity to consume; analyze the economic concept of elasticity. 5. Sketch the curves; model situations involving maximizing and minimizing a quantity and solve them. 6. Identify and evaluate functions of two or more independent variables; solve problems involving Lagrange multipliers. 7. Define the antiderivatives and the indefinite integral; apply basic integration formulas; and evaluate definite integrals. |
Course content includes the following topics: limit, continuity, differentiation and integration. The basic philosophy of the course is first to introduce the topics and then practice on them. The course is designed such that students taking this course will have the necessary mathematical equipment and use quantitative research methods. |
