Course Details

  • Credit: 4
  • Semester: 1
  • Prerequisite: none

Synopsis

This course introduces the concepts of functions and limits of single variable. Linear, polynomial, logarithmic, exponential and trigonometry functions will be discussed. The focus will be on the understanding of concept and solving of differentiation and integration with applications. Students are then introduced to differential equations focusing on separable differential equation and first-order linear equations. Matrices and determinants are taught in solving systems of linear equations by using Gauss and Cramer methods.

Course Objective

This course extends on topics related to calculus, linear algebra, and common integral equation.
