Course Description:
A course in pre-calculus is a gateway to other, more advanced courses in mathematics devoted to the study of functions and limits, broadly called mathematical analysis. All the high-school students in Taiwan have the fundamental knowledge of pre-calculus, including exponential & logarithmic problem solving, trigonometric functions, etc. Therefore, pre-calculus is not a required subject of study for the local students in NCKU. This course is particularly designed to help an international student and overseas Chinese student develop the solid foundation in the topics of pre-calculus that one will need to excel in one’s undergraduate studies, including calculus, engineering mathematics, etc., in NCKU.
