Trefnydd: Dr David Edward Perkins

The Further Mathematics module aims to provide students with the more advanced mathematical skills and knowledge, which are essential for a successful progression to degree-level study in subject areas that require it. The module will cover a range of key topics including calculus, but will also place a strong emphasis on the application of knowledge and skills to a range of subject areas.

Topics covered by this module may include the following:

Sets and Functions: definition of set and function. Polynomial and exponential functions and their graphs. Modelling using exponential functions.

Number systems: integers, rational, real and complex numbers. Arithmetic. Solving quadratic equations.

Calculus: differentiation and integration. Applications, including optimisation, curve sketching and differential equations.

Vectors: definition of a vector, in 2 and 3 dimensions. Vector operations.

Trigonometry. Pythagorean identities and solution of trigonometric equations.

Grade D- to D+ Demonstrates a basic understanding of the subject but some errors present. Some inaccuracies and misconceptions evident. Limited ability to apply subject knowledge to new or different scenarios. The clarity of information presentation is weak and use of appropriate, subject-specific terminology is limited.

C- i C+

Grade C- to C+ A clearer understanding of the subject matter. Demonstrates ability to apply subject knowledge to new or different scenarios, but with some errors. The clarity of information presentation is acceptable and use of appropriate, subject-specific terminology is developing. There is evidence of some limited engagement with the wider literature and published information sources.
