Textbook: Stewart's Calclus, 5th edition. ISBN: 053439339X
Topics: This course will extend your knowledge of calculus to higher dimensions. We will cover chapters 11, 14 - 17 from the text.
Exams: There will be 2 midterms (Oct 11 and Nov 15) and a final exam (8-9:55 am, Tuesday, December 19th). Make-up exams are only allowed for documented illness or University excused absences and if the instructor is notified in advance. Make arrangements for a make-up as soon as possible. More details on exams will be announced.
Practice midterm 1Calculator Policy: Calculators are allowed during exams. However, you are expected to show the steps that justify your answers, and to give exact answers whenever possible. This also applies to homework unless the question specifically instructs you to use a computer or calculator. Any step on which you use a calculator must be clearly indicated (just write "CALCULATOR").
Grading: Grades will be based on your understanding of the material as demonstrated in class, office hours, homework, labs, and exams. The homework and lab assignments will be weighted equally, with the lowest score dropped. Grades will be assigned on a curve. More details TBA.
Homework: Depending on the length of the assignment, not all problems may be graded. Late homework is not accepted.
