Course detail

Mathematics 1

FP-MA1_MAcad. year: 2024/2025

The subject is a part of theoretical fundamentals. The aim is to manage calculations with numeric variables (including the use of IT) and the analysis of functions of one real variable, including their applications in economic disciplines.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

6

Mode of study

Not applicable.

Entry knowledge

Knowledge of secondary-school mathematics.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Credit requirements:

Passing control tests and achieving at least 55% points or passing a comprehensive written work and achieving at least 55% points.
Awarding credit is a necessary condition for taking the exam.

Exam requirements:

The exam has a written and an oral part, with the focus of the exam being the oral part.

For all tasks in the written part, the calculation must be written down, or the procedure must be described, or the result must be justified verbally. The examples are divided into thematic groups. If the student does not achieve at least 50% of the total number of achievable points in each thematic group of examples, the written part and the entire exam are graded "F" (unsatisfactory) and the student does not proceed to the oral part.
If the student does not achieve at least 55% of the total number of achievable points in the written work, the written part and the entire exam are graded "F" (unsatisfactory) and the student does not proceed to the oral part.
The oral part, focused on knowledge of the theory, follows the written part, and also serves to resolve any ambiguities in the written part.


Completion of the subject for students with individual study:

Attendance at exercises (seminars) is  controlled.

Aims

The aim is for students to master numerical calculations (including the use of IT) and the analysis of functions of one real variable, including their economic applications.
Acquired knowledge and practical mathematical skills will be an important starting point for mastering new knowledge in the follow-up courses of mathematical character; they will also be essential for acquiring knowledge in courses on economy and for the correct use of mathematical software.
