Overview
In this course, students will be exposed to the foundations of calculus. They will engage in the study of functions in order to then identify how to define and employ limits of functions, derivatives, and integrals. The course has an extensive practical aspect, which consolidates theory by solving problems and exercises, and sketching graphs. The importance of calculus and the essential role it plays in many disciplines, such as physical and biological sciences, economics, and even social sciences, will be emphasized.
