This 12-week course covers an introduction of calculus and its applications, as well as foundations of probability and statistics. It is addressed to undergraduate students in business and related fields.
We follow the books Applied Calculus and Math in Society. For practice, we use the exercises in Paul’s Online Notes.
The schedule below contains links to companion YouTube videos with a summary of the theory. The videos are not an online course on their own, instead they are a companion to the bibliography shown below.
