*This course was previously MATH 2433*

Section number: This information applies to all sections.

Delivery format: face-to-face lecture or online.

Prerequisites: MATH 2414

Course Description: Calculus of functions of several variables: calculus of vector-valued functions, partial differentiation, multiple integrals. 

Textbook & Access Code: The textbook,online quizzes, and additional help materials will be made available by logging into CASA Campus Services (CCS) at https://ccs.casa.uh.edu/ . Students pay for access to CCS as part of their fee bill via CTAP. If one opts out of the CTAP, they can purchase an access code for this course at UH Bookstore. In this case, if the code is not entered by the deadline specified on CASA, students will lose access to CASA. No make ups will be given for assignments missed during the no-access period.

Upon successful completion of this course, students will:

• Perform calculus operations on vector‐valued functions, including derivatives, integrals, curvature, displacement, velocity, acceleration, and torsion.
• Perform calculus operations on functions of several variables, including partial derivatives, directional derivatives, and multiple integrals.
• Find extrema and tangent planes.
• Solve problems using the Fundamental Theorem of Line Integrals, Green's Theorem, the Divergence Theorem, and Stokes' Theorem.
• Apply the computational and conceptual principles of calculus to the solutions of real-world problems.

[Additional course curriculum details: Advanced topics in calculus, including vectors and vector-valued functions, partial differentiation, Lagrange multipliers, multiple integrals, and Jacobians; application of the line integral, including Green’s Theorem, the Divergence Theorem, and Stokes’ Theorem.]
