This course covers Calculus of several variables. The concepts are extensions of the concepts from Calculus I. It is necessary to remind the students of those basic concepts, as the course progresses. Multivariable Calculus is an important tool in Science and Engineering. The instructor should emphasize the importance of all relevant concepts, including: curves and surfaces in Euclidean 3-space, length and curvature, area and volume; surfaces, partial derivatives, total differential, tangent planes to surfaces; gradient; vector-valued functions; path integral; Stokes' theorem, which should be stated, with an emphasis on its important particular cases, Green's Theorem and Divergence Theorem - followed by a few basic examples.
Grading Policy
Homework is worth 20% of the final grade.
However in order to pass the class your overall grade
in the HW at the end of the semester should be at least 50%. This may appear radical, but besides
the exams, the HW system is a major tool the instructor has to asses your class performances. The instructor
will check regularly your HW score and let you know if you are not on track.
Examinations:
Exam #1: Wed, Sep 18 11:40am-12:50pm
MATH 012
worth 15% of the final grade
Exam #2: Wed, Oct 16 11:40am-12:50pm
MATH 012
worth 20% of the final grade
Exam #3: Wed, Nov 13 11:40am-12:50pm
MATH 012
worth 20% of the final grade
Final Exam: Thu, Dec 5, 1:30pm-4:00pm
MATH 012
worth 30% of the final grade
Overall grade: a perfect score in all tests and homeworks results in a overall grade of 105% .
If your overall score is less than 60% you will receive an F grade, in between 60-69% you will receive a D grade,
in between 70-79% you will receive a C grade, in between 80-89% you will receive a B grade, in between 90-99% you will receive an A grade, with 100% or more you will receive A+.
Exam Policies
Students are expected to take the midterm exams and the final exam as scheduled. There are no make ups for the examinations, except for reasons of illness, stated in writing by a medical doctor, observance of a religious holiday, university justified field trips or work conflicts. Usually, no other reasons are accepted (events, plane tickets, weddings, ...).
Class Policies
Classes start and end always on time. Students are not allowed to leave the class before the end of the hour without authorization. During class time it is not allowed to text, chat or sleep. Please put in silent mode all your electronic devices.
