Course Description
Description: This course is the third part in the sequence the calculus courses offered at IUT. The course covers infinite series, vectors and multiple variable functions. Multivariable Calculus is the extension of Calculus to more than one variable. That is, in single variable calculus we study functions of a single independent variable, and in multivariable calculus we study functions of two or more independent variables. These functions are interesting in their own right, but they at the same time they have a lot fo applications in the real world problems.
Course structure: The content of the course is organized into 5 (five) major units. The Midterm Exam covers the topics of the first two units. The Final Exam is intended to check the knowledge and ability of students on the last three units:
- Infinite Sequences & Series. Taylor Series.
- Vectors and Vector Calculus. Analytical Geometry.
- Partial Derivatives
- Double Integrals and Line Integrals in the Plane
- Triple Integrals and Surface Integrals in 3-Space
Prerequisite(s): Single Variable Calculus (1) (Mandatory)
