Applied Calculus PDF

This document outlines a course in Applied Calculus taught at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology. The course is aimed at students of Electronic Engineering and introduces concepts of calculus and their applications in engineering. Over the course of a term, students will learn about functions, limits, derivatives, integrals, vector algebra and vector calculus. Assessment includes sessional work, a midterm exam, and a final written exam. Upon completing the course, students should understand how to use calculus to solve problems related to rates of change, maxima/minima, areas under curves, and other applications relevant to their field of study.
