OBJECTIVES :
The goal of this course is to achieve conceptual understanding and to retain the best traditions of
traditional calculus. The syllabus is designed to provide the basic tools of calculus mainly for the
purpose of modelling the engineering problems mathematically and obtaining solutions. This is a
foundation course which mainly deals with topics such as single variable and multivariable
calculus and plays an important role in the understanding of science, engineering, economics and
computer science, among other disciplines.
After completing this course, students should demonstrate competency in the following skills:
Use both the limit definition and rules of differentiation to differentiate functions.
Apply differentiation to solve maxima and minima problems.
Evaluate integrals both by using Riemann sums and by using the Fundamental Theorem of
Calculus.
Apply integration to compute multiple integrals, area, volume, integrals in polar coordinates, in
addition to change of order and change of variables.
