Calculus course is offered by the Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. It is designed to cater for first year, first semester students who undertaking Calculus course. The contents of this module are centred on the core of calculus subject and are in line with the curriculum drawn up by the Faculty and endorsed by the Engineering Accreditation Council. This course is opened to all students and will be conducted fully online via MOOC platform.

This course is mainly about the study of mathematical concept by using knowledge of calculus. First, students will be introduced to the concept of limit and continuity including the limit at a point, limit at infinity, techniques to compute limit, and continuity at a point. Next, the students will learn the techniques of differentiation and integration as well as application of differentiation and integration in circuit analysis. Finally, the students will gain knowledge on further differentiation and integration, which covers inverse function, inverse trigonometry as well as inverse hyperbolic functions.


An ordinary differential equation (ODE) is a differential equation whose unknown(s) consists of one (or more) function(s) of one variable and involves the derivatives of those functions. The term ordinary is used in contrast with the term partial differential equation which may be with respect to more than one independent variable.
