Preliminary MATHEMATICS in Economics - 經濟

http://0rz.tw/uI5nb
The course is intended to be a refresher course: the material covered will
be the mathematics and statistics normally taught in the undergraduate
programme of a BSc Economics degree.

The course will provide the essential prerequisite for the MSc modules in
Quantitative Methods, Research Methods, Macroeconomics and Microeconomics.
After the Preliminary Mathematics course, students should be able to
use matrices for simple manipulations solve system of equations using matrix
algebra understand derivates and partial derivatives
use Jacobian determinants to test for functional dependence
understand differentials, total differentials and total derivatives
use exponential and logarithmic functions to analyse growth
find unconstrained optima of functions with one or more choice variables
find constrained optima using the Lagrange multiplier and substitution methods
use these techniques to solve problems in economics.
