Prerequisite: MTH 254: Vector Calculus I
-
You must be comfortable with partial derivatives and multiple
integration in order to do well in the course. If you are rusty, it is highly
recommended that you review this material now.
-
Course Structure:
-
The approach to vector calculus used in this course emphasizes geometric
visualization, not just algebraic manipulation. This approach has been
developed as part of a national effort to improve the teaching of vector
calculus. Further information can be found on the
project website.
A partial list of course goals can be found here.
-
The course will consist of a combination of lectures, group activities,
homework and exams. Expect group activities at least once a week; ditto for
assigned homework.
-
Students with Disabilities:
-
Accommodations are collaborative efforts between students, faculty and
Disability Access Services (DAS). Students with accommodations approved
through DAS should contact me prior to or during the first week of the term to
discuss accommodations. Students who believe they are eligible for
accommodations but who have not yet obtained approval through DAS should
contact DAS immediately. Further information is available on the
DAS website.
