Book Description: Ready for Uni: Background Mathematics for First Year Engineers and Scientists is a practical and accessible guide created to help you bridge the gap between high school and university maths. Mastery of basic mathematical skills and the retention of certain knowledge is required for success in most engineering and science courses. This book is designed to help you identify any gaps in mathematical knowledge that you might have and through a series of worked examples and practice exercises, help you fill these gaps as you start your journey into university science or engineering. Each chapter encourages active learning through a preliminary quiz that helps you identify your starting point, step-by-step worked examples that show how concepts build on each other, and exercises that reinforce understanding and build proficiency. The book covers a wide range of topics, from indices, logarithms and algebra to calculus, matrices, vectors and complex numbers. With clear explanations, practical examples, and targeted exercises, this guide is more than a textbook—it’s your roadmap to making you maths-ready for university.
