Mathematical Methods in Economics

Summary

The subject connects present mathematical and economic knowledge from the Bachelor Study Programme with new ones obtaining in the Master Study programme. Present as well as new knowledge are used in the real environment, which strengthens and stabiles understanding of new relationships.
After successful graduation you
• will know to use mathematics as the tool for deeper understanding,
• will be able to study economics effectively,
• will get confidence in own mathematical ability.

The subject deepens students’ knowledge of the Economics realm and leads it to
the level of accurate mathematical comprehension. It teaches students finding
out and thinking of clear arguments for the justification of various economic
phenomena. In the name of this aim, it shows students the procedures which
they can use their knowledge of Economics and mathematical and logical apparatus
for.
