Calculus I: Requirement and First-Year Placement

Calculus I is listed as a required course in several 2026 faculties, departments, and curriculum models. This page summarizes its usual placement, credits, class format, and retake-class arrangements.

Requirement status by programme

For the 2026 curriculum, Calculus I is listed as required in the following contexts: the Science and Technology Faculty, including the Electronic and Information Engineering study model and the faculty-level curriculum; the Engineering Faculty's Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department; the System Design Engineering Faculty's Design Engineering Department and Information Systems Engineering Department; the Future Science Faculty's Robotics and Mechatronics Department; and the Engineering Faculty's general curriculum. It is also listed in the Future Science Faculty's Architecture Department. In the Science study model, students in the mathematical information course are instructed to take Calculus I, Calculus II, Linear Algebra I, and Linear Algebra II. In Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Calculus I is marked as a required course in the relevant field.

Usual timing, credits, and class format

Calculus I is normally assigned to the first year, first semester, and carries 2 credits. It is taught as a lecture and is listed as one class period. These details are shown for the Science and Technology Faculty, the Future Science Faculty's Robotics and Mechatronics Department, and the System Design Engineering Faculty's Information Systems Engineering Department. For Information Systems Engineering, Calculus I is placed in the first-year, first-semester mathematics curriculum together with Linear Algebra I and Mathematics Exercises B. A retake class is offered in the second semester. The beginner class meets twice a week.

Information and Communications Engineering reference model

In the 2026 reference model for the Engineering Faculty's Information and Communications Engineering Department, Calculus I is listed as a 2-credit course and is shown with shading. The supplied curriculum information identifies its inclusion in the reference model but does not provide an additional requirement description for this entry.
