• MATH 225: Calculus I

  4.00 Credits

  Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania

  
  This course begins the study of calculus of functions of one variable. Students will study limits and continuity of real-valued functions. Students will explore the derivative as a rate of change and learn how to calculate derivatives of algebraic and transcendental functions. Applications of the derivative to various physical and other phenomena will be considered. This course also provides an introduction to Riemann integration.

• MATH 230: Calculus II

  4.00 Credits

  Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania

  
  This course continues the study of calculus of real-valued functions of one variable. Students will learn various techniques of evaluating antiderivatives and approximating definite integrals. These integrals will be used in various applications such as calculating areas and volumes, arc length, work, and solving simple first-order differential equations. Parametric and polar equations and their differential and integral calculus are also considered. Students will also investigate sequences and series, their convergence properties, and the use of power series to represent functions.

• MATH 231: Calculus III

  4.00 Credits

  Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania

  
  This course continues the study of calculus with the study of functions of several variables. Students will learn about the geometry of two- and three-dimensional space, vector-valued functions, and functions of several variables. Students will investigate these functions with partial derivatives and multiple integration. Vector calculus topics such as Green's, Stokes, and the Divergence Theorems will be covered. Computer software such as Mathematica will be used in problem solving in this course.

• MATH 232: Linear Algebra

  3.00 Credits

  Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania

  
  In this class, students will learn techniques for solving systems of linear equations and related matrix equations. Vectors and vector spaces will be considered along with properties relating to solving matrix equations. In particular, special care will be taken with real vector spaces and inner product spaces, and how they are used to solve problems with applications in physics and other fields. The eigenvalue/eigenvector problem will also be discussed. Students will be expected to use technology to solve problems in this class.
