MATH 116 - Accelerated Calculus Part II: Series, Differential Equations and Multivariable Calculus

Prerequisite, MATH 115. This course is the second part of an intensive introduction to the calculus of elementary functions and its applications to science. Students will explore Taylor Series, model exponential growth, sinusoidal oscillation, and logistic convergence through simple differential equations, continue with calculus of functions of two or more variables and of vector-valued functions. Optimization of functions of several variables, Lagrange multipliers, multiple integrals and integration of vector fields, divergence and curl, line and surface integration, Green, Stokes, and Divergence Theorems. This is the second part of a two-semester accelerated Calculus course. Students who take MATH 111 or MATH 210 may not also receive credit for MATH 116. Letter grade. (Offered spring semester.) 4 credits
