This course aims to enable students to understand basic mathematical tools widely applicable to construct models in economic and management situations. The topics include propositional logic, mapping and correspondence, equivalence relation, maximum and minimum.
Knowledge and ability through this course will help students to deal with real problems in management sciences and economics.
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
Understand fundamental properties of propositional logic,
Understand fundamental properties of mapping and correspondence,
Understand fundamental properties of equivalence relation,
Understand fundamental properties of maximum and minimum.
propositional logic, mapping and correspondence, equivalence relation, maximum and minimum
