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 organized 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 have a need to refresh their memory are strongly recommended to take the course even if they pass 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.)
