Student Learning Outcomes/Learning Objectives

  1. Demonstrate the ability to analyze and visualize curves, surfaces, and regions in 2 and 3 dimensions, in Cartesian, polar, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems.
  2. Perform calculus operations on vector‐valued functions including limits, derivatives, integrals, curvature, and the description of motion in space.
  3. Perform calculus operations on functions of several variables including limits, partial derivatives, directional derivatives, and multiple integrals.
  4. Find and classify extrema and tangent planes of functions of two variables.
  5. Apply some of the theorems of vector calculus, such as the Fundamental Theorem of Line Integrals, Green’s Theorem, the Divergence Theorem, and Stokes' Theorem, to simplify integration problems.
  6. Apply the computational and conceptual principles of calculus to the solutions of various scientific and business applications.
