Prerequisites
Basics of algebraic calculus.
Objectives
At the end of this course the students should be able to interpret and formulate problems in Mathematical Analysis and Financial Mathematics and have obtained the mathematical skills that will allow them to extrapolate mathematical problems to economic and social realities.
