BMAT 13A01 - Math Applied to Social Sciences - Introductory level

This course is made up of two parts: 12 hours of pre-term teaching during the first two weeks of the academic year, followed by 24 hours over the course of the semester. The programme has been split into two so as to allow for a change of teacher between the two parts.

Concepts are not compartmentalised between the pre-term and the semester: they are introduced during the pre-term and then consolidated during the semester.

The 12 hours of pre-term teaching will be used to review foundational material. It includes, in particular

Review of algebraic manipulations and equations

Review of numerical data

Review of functions

The 24 hours term module includes, in particular

Sequences

Functions

Differentiation
