Learning outcomes

In this course students will practice the basic mathematical skills required to understand other courses. The aim is to master Finnish high school level mathematics. This course is not needed if one passes an initial test organised in September. The initial test is based on the actual course content; material for self-studying is provided in advance. Students, who feel unconfident with their mathematical skills or having a need to refresh their memory are strongly recommended to participate in the course even when passing the initial test.

Contents

Review and practice of the school level mathematics (powers, roots, logarithms, quadratic equations, inequalities, function theory, differentiation, integrals, sequences, series, mathematical induction, vectors, etc.)
