Course objectives

The course aims to teach theorems and rules, to develop critical and analytical thinking so that interdisciplinary problems could be modelled and solved with mathematical accuracy and discipline.

Upon successfully completing this course the student should:

  • understand the fundamental concepts of functions of one real variable, such as the limit, the continuity, the derivative, be able to synthesize and apply the properties of these concepts in the study of a real function of one real variable.
  • have understood the concepts of the indefinite integral, the definite integral and the improper integral, know methods and techniques of integration so as to apply them when calculating the area of ​​a 2-dimensional region, when calculating volume / surface of ​​a 3-dimensional region by using appropriate integrals, when solving ordinary differential equations or transformation Laplace, Fourier, etc.
  • be familiar with distinct concepts, such as sequences and series, know the tests for convergence of the series and how they are applied as regards approaching basic functions.

The course aims at the acquisition of knowledge, ideas and skills that are to be implemented in other courses related to Informatics and Biomedicine.
