Subject specific learning outcomes and competences
The ability to understand the basic problems of calculus and use derivatives and integrals for solving specific problems.
Learning objectives
The main goal of the course is to explain the basic principles and methods of calculus. The emphasis is put on handling the practical use of these methods for solving specific tasks.
Why is the course taught
Fundamentals of calculus are a necessary part of a study at a technical university because virtually all technical and physical subjects employ the concepts of a derivative and integral.
Recommended prerequisites
- Discrete Mathematics (IDM)

Syllabus of lectures
- The concept of a function of a real variable, properties of functions and basic operations with functions.
- Elementary functions of a real variable.
- Limit and continuity of a function. Limit of a sequence.
- Derivative and a differential of a function.
- Higher-order derivatives. Taylor polynomial. Extrema of a function.
- Graph properties.
- Interpolation and approximation.
- Numerical solutions of equations.
- Indefinite integral, basic methods of integration.
- Definite Riemann integral, its applications.
- Improper integral.
- Numerical integration.
Syllabus of numerical exercises
Problems discussed at numerical classes are chosen so as to complement suitably the lectures.
Progress assessment
Written tests during the semester (maximum 20 points).
Controlled instruction
Classes are compulsory (presence at lectures, however, will not be controlled), absence at numerical classes has to be excused.
Exam prerequisites
The condition for receiving the credit is active work during the semestr and obtaining at least 8 points from the tests during the semester.
