Course Description and Learning Objectives After successful completion of the course, students are expected to have:
Knowledge: To understand and describe course concepts such as: Real Functions of one and many variables, limits, derivative, integrals, linear algebra, matrices, linear systems
Skills: To select and apply appropriate mathematical techniques for calculating limits, derivatives, integrals, for studying functions, calculating extremes and inflection points, plotting functions and solving linear systems.
Abilities: To propose mathematical tools and techniques for dealing with problems related to Economics and Business Administration. To analyze, synthesize and formulate evaluative judgments in problems related to Business Administration.
Competencies The course aims to:
- Promotion of free, creative, and inductive thinking
− Decision making
- Independent work
- CONTENT

The course focuses on learning the mathematical "tools" necessary to solve problems of economic and administrative applications. At the same time, through their applications, mathematical concepts that seem "abstract" at first glance are understood, while basic elements of mathematical theory and corresponding applications with their solutions covering different areas of business administration are given.
The course is developed in the following sections:
1. Linear systems
2. Tables - Algebra of tables. Determinants
3. Introduction, sets of numbers, functions of a real variable.
4. Limits and continuity of functions
5. First and second derivative of functions of one variable
6. Derivatives of special functions.
7. Local extremes, turning points.
8. Asymptotic lines. Calculation of vertical and horizontal-lateral asymptotes
9. The exponential and logarithmic function.
10. Functions of several variables.
11. Partial derivatives of a function.
12. Definite integral of real functions
13. Indefinite integral of real functions
