Prerequisites

Foundation course in mathematics

Intended learning outcomes

To give basic proficiency in mathematical concepts, reasoning and relations contained in single-variable calculus. To provide the skills in calculus and problem solving required for subsequent studies. After a completed course, the student should be able to

  • read and interpret mathematical text
  • quote and explain definitions of concepts like local extremum, limit, continuity, derivative, antiderivative and integral
  • quote, explain and use central theorems such as the first and second fundamental theorem of calculus, the mean value theorems, the intermediate value theorem, the extreme value theorem
  • use rules for limits, derivatives, antiderivatives and integrals
  • carry out examinations of functions, e.g., using derivatives, limits and the properties of the elementary functions, and by that means draw conclusions concerning the properties of functions
  • use standard techniques in order to determine antiderivatives and definite integrals
  • investigate improper integrals with antiderivatives
  • compare sums and integrals
  • perform routine calculations with confidence
  • carry out inspections of results and partial results, in order to verify that these are correct or reasonable

Course content

Functions of a real variable. Limits and continuity. Derivatives. Rules of differentiation. Properties of differentiable functions. Derivative and monotonicity.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)

The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.

LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
