CALCULUS AND DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
MAT1CDE
2020
Credit points: 15
Subject outline
You will learn and apply mathematical concepts and develop skills that provide a foundation for all studies requiring knowledge of calculus. You will refine and extend your knowledge of the concepts and techniques of calculus and move on to the ideas of differential equations and modelling the real world. The power and limitations of models to make predictions about ecological and economic sustainability are explored. First order separable and first and second order linear differential equations are covered along with some approximation techniques. An active learning approach is used engaging you in solving mathematical problems and exploring the detail of mathematical concepts so they can be appropriately applied. Reasoning skills and the ability to clearly present written arguments will be developed and verbal communication skills are practiced through group-work and interaction with staff. (Engineering students will work to achieve the stage one competencies 1.2 (conceptual understanding of the underpinning mathematics, numerical analysis and statistics), 3.2 (effective written communication) and 3.4 (management of self).)
