Learning outcomes:
 
After successfully completing this module, students will be able to apply mathematical calculation techniques to individual mathematical problems. We will also look at examples of applications in physics and technology. Students understand the concepts of limit and continuity. They will be familiar with the basics of differential calculus and be able to apply derivative rules to functions in one variable. Students will be able to use the rule of Bernoulli and de l’Hôpital to calculate limits. They will understand the basic principles of integral calculus and be able to use integration techniques to integrate functions in one variable. In addition, students will be familiar with the field of ordinary differential equations and be able to apply it to first order linear differential equations with constant coefficients.
