Overview
Key facts
You will learn to understand the necessary definitions and mathematical concepts needed and you will be trained to apply those and solve mathematical problems. You will feel confident in using basic mathematical techniques for your first calculus course at university-level, building on high-school level mathematics. We aim to teach you the skills, but also to show you how mathematics will be used in different engineering and science disciplines. The Pre-University Calculus is offered by Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).
What you'll learn:
- Understand, visualize and manipulate different elementary functions, like powers, roots, polynomials, trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions.
- Understand, visualize and solve equations and inequalities involving these elementary functions.
- Understand the concept of differentiation and to calculate the derivatives of compositions of elementary functions.
- Understand the concept of integration and to use some elementary integration techniques
