Upon successful completion of the course, the students have strengthened their knowledge in basic differential calculus of functions of one real variable. The objective is to study basic properties of limits, continuous functions and classical results concerning differentiation including the chain rule, the mean value theorem (for derivatives) and the implicit differentiation.
The course is based on a computational approach.

Prerequisites:
The course where the derivative is discussed in long or short mathematics syllabus in high school.

Offering data:
This course is intended for the following student groups:
• mathematics majors,
• minor subject students,
• Open University students and lifelong learners.

From 1.8.2026: Lectures are delivered only in Finnish, while the course itself may be taken in either Finnish or English. All learning materials are provided in both languages. The lecture course can be completed on either the Joensuu or Kuopio campus.
