using integrals to compute areas, sequences and series, convergence of each, partial and infinite sums, geometric series, Taylor series. elective coursework:įunctions and graphs with particular focus on polynomials and roots, rational functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, limits and continuity of functionsįirst and higher order differentiation of single variable functions, applications of differentiation including identification of minima, maxima, and inflection points, antiderivatives, the definite integral, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, techniques of integration including substitution, integration by parts, etc. Math Tools IV offers coverage of basic concepts from linear algebra, necessary for some of our available M.S. Rather, we cover the tools and skills necessary to successfully complete the more mathematical coursework required in our M.S.
We don't provide a full treatment of calculus. Math Tools I-III provides a guided review of calculus utilizing content from the Khan Academy and MathIsPower4U*, with enhancements, practice problems, assignments, and assessments from our faculty. in Biostatistics but lacking the required background in calculus, or students needing a mathematical refresher, we’re pleased to offer our summer term, fully online Math Tools courses to help out. » Departments » Bioinformatics & Biostatistics » Academics » Math Toolsįor students interested in seeking our M.S.
