Prerequisites
NOW( C1480 Intro to Math - seminar )
It is expected that the student will enter the course with the basic knowledge of mathematics at a grammar school level.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The course goal is to present an overview of linear algebra, differential and integral calculus and differential equations at the lowest possible level. The course is focused on obtaining basic orientation in the field. It is accompanied by practically oriented exercises, so the student will be able to solve basic tasks in the field.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course a student should have notions in linear algebra, differential and integral calculus of functions of one and two variables and simple differential equations.

General note: Kurz je povinný pro studijní obor Učitelství chemie pro střední školy pokud není druhým studovaným (aprobačním) oborem učitelství matematiky nebo fyziky. Je tedy např. povinný pro kombinaci Bi-Ch.
