Honors Calculus III (Math 207)

Syllabus


Overview

This is the third semester of a four semester sequence of Honors Calculus. The first two semesters included the basics of one dimensional calculus: the theory of the integral, continuity, and the derivative. The third semester begins with a thorough treatment of linear algebra and continues with differentiation and integration in higher dimensions.

As for prerequisities, the best way to determine if a student s prepared for Math 207 is to take a look at some of the Math 157 and Math 158 exams.
