Course Overview

Mathematics is the language of Technology, Engineering, and Science.  Calculus is a rudimentary mathematical topic in any engineering or science-based program. That’s why, to prepare you for the introductory calculus courses, edX has designed the Pre-University Calculus training. The program provides a refresher in five essential topics: differentiation, functions, integration, equations, and analytic geometry.

The self-paced Pre-University Calculus program features seven modules and one final exam. The modules themselves have short three-five minute videos in engineering, science, and technology. Moreover, you also get to test your knowledge by tackling interactive exercises and weekly homework. When you’re done with the curriculum, you’ll feel a lot more confident in negotiating with your first university-level calculus course.

After you’ve completed the Pre-University Calculus Certification syllabus, you will be relatively familiar with basic mathematical concepts and necessary definitions. You get to access the course material such as the videos and exercises for free. However, if you wish to have access to the final exam and certificate, you will need to purchase the certificate experience, priced at a nominal fee.
