Course Description:
The pre-requisite for this course iselementary level Mathematics. The course begins with based
techniques of differentiation and integration and applications of integration. It then covers infinite
sequences and series as well as power and Taylor series. Topics from analytic geometry including
parametric equations, polar coordinates, and spherical polar coordinates are also covered. Finally, it
describes functions of two and more variables and their applications in diverse fields of business
and engineering sciences.
Course Objectives:
To introduce the concept of integration, study various techniques of integration and illustrate a few
applications of integration. Also, to introduce concepts of sequences and infinite series, and applications of
sequences and infinite series in diverse fields.

Learning Outcomes:

Students will be able to:

1. Locate and use information to solve calculus problems.
2. Demonstrate ability to think critically by demonstrating an understanding for infinite series and their
use for approximation.
3. Demonstrate ability to think critically by recognizing patterns and determining and using
appropriate techniques for solving a variety of integration problems.
4. Demonstrate the ability to think critically by setting up and solving area and volume application
problems.
5. Demonstrate the ability to integrate knowledge and ideas of definite and indefinite integrals in a
coherent and meaningful manner and use appropriate techniques for solving such problems.
6. Demonstrate an intuitive and computational understanding for integral applications by solving a
variety of problems from physics, engineering and mathematics
7. Demonstrate the ability to find solutions to 3D problems.
