Course objectives
The aim of the course is to introduce the principal mathematical means necessary to formulate and solve economic problems. The graduates of the course should understand and be able to use basic terms and methods of linear algebra, especially matrices and solving systems of linear algebraic equations. They also revise some topics from elementary differential calculus. The course is followed by Mathematics II. (KMMAT2)
