Course Learning Outcomes

  • Calculate geometric and physical quantities (such as area, volume, work, average value etc.) by setting up and evaluating a definite integral.
  • Apply advanced integration techniques-including substitution, integration by parts, trigonometric substitution, and partial fractions-to evaluate indefinite and definite integrals.
  • Determine the convergence or divergence of infinite sequences and series and justify the conclusion using appropriate convergence tests.
  • Use power series to represent of functions and determine their interval of convergence.
  • Apply Taylor's Theorem to find polynomial approximations of functions and estimate their accuracy and use Taylor series to solve problems across scientific and economic fields.
  • Describe curves using Cartesian, parametric and polar coordinates to compute geometric properties like area and arclength.
  • Express complex numbers in rectangular, polar and exponential forms to perform fundamental arithmetic operations, including roots and powers.
