MAT-1920: Calculus II

The course aims to apply and extend what students have learned in previous mathematics courses through the study of more derivative techniques and application, integration techniques and applications, derivatives and integrals of transcendental functions, polar and parametric functions, and sequences and series. The course begins with a wrapping up of derivative techniques from Math 1910 and L’Hopital’s rule. Students then work on integration applications like volumes and arc length. The course continues to integration techniques like integration by parts, partial fractions, and improper integrals. Students learn to work with, graph, differentiate, and integrate polar and parametric functions. The last part of the course includes a thorough treatment of sequences and series, including finding the sum of an infinite series and utilizing tests for convergence. Students in this course will continue to use problem solving strategies, questioning, investigating, and explaining in conjunction with their knowledge of the connections among algebra, geometry and functions to analyze problems and formulate solutions. Throughout, they will also use these strategies to extend their current knowledge by making new connections. The course is a college level course and requires a significant amount of preparation for every class on the part of the student.
