Course Description: |
MAT-162 (4 cr. hr.): Calculus II is the Second
semester of a three-semester sequence that introduces the fundamental
tools of Integral Calculus and Infinite Series for scientists and
engineers. The course is a prerequisite or for all
upper-level mathematic major courses. The lectures will be
supplemented by laboratory experiments integrated with the
course. The laboratory provides hands-on experience in
applications of calculus to the physical sciences |

Fine-tuning of the grade will
take into account other factors such as attendance, improvement, grade
distribution, consistency, and class participation. Efforts will be made
to device exams which will result on a ten point grading scale. |
| Make-ups::
|
There will be no make-ups, no early exams. No
exceptions! Under exceptional circumstances, students who missed
one exam with a proper excuse, will be allowed to replace the score in
that exam with an average computed from the corresponding section in the
final exam. |
| Disabilities: |
If you feel that you should qualify for disability
testing or accommodations during this course, contact the Office if
Disability Services in Westside Hall or call ext. 3746. |
| Attendance: |
Do not miss any classes, but most important, do not miss
any exams! |
| Goals: |
a) To complete the basic training in Calculus for
scientists and engineers |
| |
b) To learn the techniques of integration a
testing infinite series |
| |
c) To develop more skills in the use of computer
algebra systems. |
| |
d) To improve analytical thinking and problem solving
skills. |
