This course builds on the foundation of MAT110 and equips the student with the basic ideas and concepts of Real Analysis. It is a one-semester course that covers, in a brief and elementary way, the most important topics in the subject in real analysis rather than a lengthy, detailed, comprehensive treatment, which normally requires an entire academic year. Successful completion of this course should provide students with a foundation for their understanding of calculus, which will enhance teaching of mathematics up through secondary school level.
