Course objectives
The aim of the course is to introduce the principal mathematical means necessary to solve economic problems and to prepare essential foundations for the subjects Statistics and Economic-Mathematical Methods. In addition to this, the subject contributes to the development of logical thinking. The graduates of the course should understand and be able to use the principles of mathematical logic and the theory of sets, basic terms and methods of linear algebra (especially matrices, determinants and solving systems of equations of the first degree), and differential calculus of functions with a single variable, with emphasis on the characteristics of functions.
