Syllabus

Course Objectives


The course aims to provide first-year economics students with the main mathematical tools that are used to analyze and solve a wide range of problems in applied in economics, business, finance and insurance. This will be their first step towards achieving a broad training in quantitative disciplines, as well as a good methodological training for the analysis and critical interpretation of economic and business dynamics. This will allow them to acquire the useful tools for the formulation, implementation and the support to the decisions in the professional context.

Course Prerequisites


Real numbers. Powers. Basic Algebra. Fractions. Solving equations and inequalities. Intervals and absolute values. Cartesian coordinates. Second degree equations. Logic. Set theory. Trigonometry. Exponential and logarithmic functions.

Teaching Methods


Teaching will include the following activities: - In presence teaching; - In presence exercise sessions - material for in-depth study available on the course webpage.

Assessment Methods


The exam includes an intermediate written test, a final written test and an oral test. The details will be published before at the begininning of the course.

Contents


The mathematical analysis for functions of a single variable allows the students to introduce the fundamental mathematical tools (limits, derivatives, integrals) for the definition and study of the mathematical models in economics. The study of vectors, matrices and linear systems then allows the design of models capable of including large amounts of data. The explanation is accompanied by economic examples to illustrate the importance of the acquired tools in the context of the study program.
