Engineering Mathematics I
NWS 111 · Semester 1
5 credits · 26 learning units
Lessons
Start with ten taught preparation lessons, from arithmetic to functions. Then work through fourteen core lessons one idea at a time, with worked examples, interactive exploration and practice. No algebra is assumed at the start. Pause whenever you need; revisit preparation before moving on. The laboratory and independent project bring the course together.
Subunit titles retain the curriculum’s original language.
