MATP1700 Introductory course to mathematics in engineering (5 cr)

• Elementary functions (polynomial and rational functions, trigonometric functions, logarithmic and exponential functions).
• Solving equations and inequalities.
• Estimating and comparing the asymptotic growth rates of functions.
• The derivative of a single-variable function.
• Accumulation and the integral function.
• Summation notation and series.
• Combining and truncating sums and series, as well as estimating them from above and below.
• Propositional logic: Connectives, counterexamples, logical implication, and logical equivalence.
• The truth value of an open sentence (predicate).
• Introduction to basic set theory notations (union, intersection, difference, complement). 

After completing the course, the student:

• Has strengthened their readiness to study mathematics as part of university studies by supplementing the basic skills provided by advanced high school mathematics.
• Has strengthened their calculation routine (computational fluency).
• Has become familiar with mathematical concepts essential for studies in information and software engineering.
• Has become familiar with the basics and fundamental concepts of logical reasoning and propositional logic.
• Masters the basic notations of set theory.
• Has become familiar with the software tools used in studying mathematics.
