The main aim of the course is to teach students how to use mathematics effectively and to increase knowledge and understanding of microeconomic and macroeconomic problems.
Students will get the following knowledge, skills and abilities:
• will be able to use mathematics as a tool for deeper understanding of microeconomics and macroeconomics,
• will be able to study economics effectively,
• will learn how to apply methods and procedures of mathematical analysis to solve practical economic problems at the microeconomic and macroeconomic level,
• will be able to describe solutions of selected economic problems using mathematical tools, check individual steps of given solution, generalize conclusions and evaluate the correctness of results with respect to given conditions.

Anotace
This course connects the existing knowledge of mathematics and economics obtained at bachelor level of study so that students apply the knowledge of mathematics in the area of microeconomics and macroeconomics. The aim of this course is to enable students to understand the benefits of using mathematics as a very useful tool for understanding objective economic reality using mathematical abstraction. Students should discover connections and relationships by comparing economic phenomena having different content but same formal description. This approach allows students to get a deeper level of knowledge of economics.
