Learning objectives

The course provides students with a rigorous scientific language based on a logical-mathematical deductive reasoning; moreover, it aims to furnish some analytical tools and basic mathematical models to deal quantitatively with the treatment of economic and business problems. In particular, the course yields the classical arguments from Mathematical Analysis (differential and integral calculus, optimization) and Linear Algebra, which constitute an effective tool for analyzing economic and business phenomena. At the end of the lessons, the student will have to demonstrate that he has acquired the ability to critically review the concepts encountered in the course and to apply methods, tools and mathematical models.

Prerequisites and basic notions

The teaching prerequisites are:
1. Elements of logic;
2. elementary operations;
3. literal calculation;
4. radicals;
5. equations and inequalities;
6. elements of analytical geometry.

Program

1. Basic mathematical notions
2. One variable functions
3. Limits
4. Differential calculus
5. Integration theory
6. Numerical series
7. Vector spaces, transformations and matrices
8. Systems of linear equations
9. Several variables functions
The detailed program and further educational material are available in the course web page.

Didactic methods

The course includes 84 hours of lectures and exercises for a total of 9 CFU.
Weekly quiz sessions and homework are also planned in preparation for the written test in telematic mode.

Learning assessment procedures

The assessment methods of the profit exams aim to promote the acquisition of reasoning and communication skills that ensure the ability to validly follow a master's degree course or to enter the workplace.
The exam includes:
1. Completion of closed multiple-choice quizzes available on the course's e-learning page. These quizzes, which are not mandatory, take place on Friday mornings (9:00 -12:00 in the Aula Magna) and assign a maximum of 2 bonus points with the following methods:
For those who complete a number of quizzes greater than or equal to 75%:
with an average score greater than or equal to 75%, 2 bonus points will be assigned,
with an average score greater than or equal to 50% and less than 75%, 1 bonus point will be assigned.
For those who complete a number of quizzes greater than or equal to 50% and less than 75%:
with an average score greater than or equal to 75%, 1 bonus point will be assigned,
with an average score greater than or equal to 50% and less than 75%, 0.5 bonus points will be awarded.
2. Completion of tasks given by the teacher during the course. These tasks, which are not mandatory, also take place on Friday mornings (9:00 -12:00 in the Great Hall) and award a maximum of 1 bonus point.
3. Written test with multiple-choice answers, composed as follows: 20 questions: 1 point for each correct answer, 0 points for each unanswered question, -0.5 points for each incorrect answer. The test lasts one hour. In particular, the multiple-choice questions are designed to verify basic knowledge, especially practical knowledge, of the logical-mathematical aspects presented during the lessons.
4. Written test, which is accessed if the sum of the scores of points 1, 2, and 3 is greater than or equal to 12, structured as follows:
Two structured exercises on the topics covered during the lessons. Maximum score 10 points.
The test lasts one hour.
5. Oral exam, which certifies theoretical knowledge (definitions, theorems, demonstrations, ...), which is accessed if the score of point 4 is greater than or equal to 6.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

The quiz and written tests are based on the way the exercises are performed and the accuracy of the results.
The evaluation of the oral test is based on the following criteria: - depth and breadth of the knowledge acquired;
- language skills;
- ability to connect knowledge in a systemic way.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

1. Written part grade: sum of points 1,2,3,4 of the exam modalities (max 33 points).
2. Oral part grade (which can confirm or modify the score obtained in point 1.)
