Mathematics of Science, Health & Engineering 1 EUS011
Introduction
EUS011 Mathematics of Science and Engineering 1 covers concepts and skills in calculus, as a preparation for University degree subjects with a mathematical component such as Science, Engineering, Geography, Health Science and Psychology. It begins with a revision of basic knowledge, including index laws, logarithms, sequences and series. Moves to trigonometry, functions, graphing of functions and limits as preparation for Differential Calculus.
