MATH 131 - Calculus Ia: Limits, Continuity and Differentiation

FC NSMA QFR
4 credits
A first course in the calculus of functions of one variable including supporting material from algebra and trigonometry. Topics include limits, continuous functions, solution of equations and inequalities, differentiation of real-valued functions of one variable, and the graphical analysis of functions.
Prerequisites & Notes: To get consent, you must take a Pre-Advisement Survey, which covers mostly precalculus topics. To take this survey, look for a link in the “Placement Exams” section of Blackboard’s “Institution Page” (or contact an instructor). After taking the survey, you must contact an instructor to help figure out whether 131 or 133 is right for you. The two-course sequence MATH 131, MATH 132 is equivalent to MATH 133. If you are comfortable with the material from MATH 133 (even if you do not have Oberlin credit), then you should instead take MATH 134. The Mathematics Department strongly discourages students from repeating courses if they have received credit for work prior to Oberlin or show adequate proficiency of the material.
