1. COURSE DESCRIPTION
Business Calculus is an introduction to differential and integral calculus: the study of change. The course provides the basic knowledge of Mathematical analysis: functions and limitations; calculus for functions of one variable; functions of several variables and implicit; extreme problems; integral calculus; differential equations and their applications in business and economics. It is designed for students working on a degree in business, economics, finance, management, banking and accouting. The prerequisites are motivation and a good working knowledge of high school algebra and trigonometry. Calculus emphasizes a clear understanding of the fundamental concepts of single and multivariable calculus and a range of skills allowing students to apply the concepts effectively.
