| | ||
| Content: This course centres upon antiderivatives and their uses: integrals of functions of one variable, the fundamental theorem of calculus and methods of integration. Applications involve areas, volumes of revolution, length of a curve, etc. Improper integrals and sequences, series and power series are also considered. | ||
| | ||
| Title: Vectors and Matrices (Non-Science Students) | ||
