Using derivatives to find marginal product values when given a utility function for consumption. Also on the production side of things, with marginal product of labor / capital with a given production function (what's your junction?). Taking the integrals of equations to get the area between two lines on a graph to analyze how much is lost or gained when changing factors around like price floors, government taxes, new technology changes, etc. Gogo economics. Definitely using it. Gogo finance, definitely used it and will be using it next semester as well as in my future job.
P.S. Derivatives and integrals are calculus, for the 90% of the guild who doesn't know.
