    I am currently taking a great Coursera course that is meant as a mathematics refresher course. It's called "Mathematical Methods for Quantitative Finance"[1]. As the name implies, it's meant as a foundation for financial calculations like options pricing, but a lot of it is just pure maths, like limits, derivation and integration.

    The lectures are quite clear and easy to follow. I did do all this math at university, but that was over 20 years ago, so I had forgotten a lot, so for me this course is perfect. But I think it can be quite useful even if the concepts a re new to you.
