Syllabus for Calculus II

I. Cata log Description :

MAT 172: Calculus II 3 ch/3 sh

This course is one of a series intended for students who major in mathematics, the sciences, or
engineering. The topics include the definition, properties, and applications of definite integrals,
properties, derivatives, and integrals of exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, inverse trigonometric,
and hyperbolic functions with applications; and techniques of integration. A graphing line -help/ quadratic -formula/free-online-calculator.html">calculator is
required for this course. MAT 171 is the prerequisite for MAT 172.

II. Rationale

This course prepares students who major in mathematics, the sciences, or engineering with the
mathematical background they need to address problems that arise in those majors. It could be
counted in Category IV-A, IV-D, or V of General Education. The course addresses General
Education Goal #3: “Students will apply mathematical functions and numeric data interpretation to
problem solving.”

III. Course Objectives:

The student will:

A. Develop an understanding of the basic concepts and application of the definite integral.

B. Develop an understanding of the basic concepts of the differentiation and integ ration of the
logarithmic
, exponential, trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, and hyperbolic functions.

C. Strike a judicious balance between theory and application, between computational skills and
mathematical sophistication, and between intuition and rigor.

D. Develop an appreciation of applications of the definite integral and of derivatives and show how
and shy these concepts are mathematical models for many phenomena in the physical world.

VI. Methods of Presentation and Evaluation

Those methods of presentation are used which lead the student to an understanding of both the theory
and the applications of calculus. Lecture, discussion, problem- solving are included in the approaches
which are used when appropriate. Maple V and Graphing calculators are used when appropriate.
Student performance is evaluated on the basis of test results.
