Course Description

This course provides an introduction to fundamental topics on calculus, where students study the following Sections: functions, limits, derivatives, and sketching functions. By the end of the course, students will have adequate knowledge, skills, and techniques that enable them to properly handle different problems and extract useful information. 

Course Objectives

This course is designed to introduce students to the following topics

  1. Functions and models.
  2. Limits and derivatives.
  3. Differentiation rules.
  4. Applications of differentiation.
Intended learning Outcomes and Competences

Students attending and passing this course should be:

  1. Familiar with functions and models such as odd and even functions, exponential functions, inverse functions, and logarithms.
  2. Familiar with limits and continuity of functions, calculating limits using the limit rules, limits at infinity (horizontal asymptotes), derivative of functions together with rates of change.
  3. Familiar with differentiation rules (product and quotient rules), and know how to apply them to derivatives of polynomials, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions and rates of change.
  4. Able to know some applications of differentiation such as finding maximum and minimum values, the Mean Value Theorem. How derivatives affect the shape of a graph. Moreover, should be able to know indeterminate forms, L’Hopital’s rule, and curve sketching.
