Class Calculus I

  • Presentation

    Presentation

    The curricular unit of Calculus I introduces the essential concepts and tools for differential and integral calculus of real-valued functions of a real variable. It is intended to extend the mathematical training acquired in secondary education by developing the capacity for abstraction and logical reasoning in formulating and solving problems, formalizing them with rigor and precision, but without neglecting the virtues of intuitive thinking. The main objective is to provide an introduction to Mathematical Analysis, showing the rigorous side of Calculus and establishing the theoretical foundations for further studies in areas of Science and Engineering.
