Course Objectives:
By end of the semester, students get acquainted with the all the basic concepts of Differential Calculus and Integral Calculus with their applications which will
help them in various disciplines in coming semesters. The applications of this course includes science and engineering problems involving higher order
derivative, curvature, tracing of curves, areas, expansion of functions, reduction formulae, volume, length of arc and much more.

Prerequisites: Students must have basic knowledge of differentiation, integration, Cartesian, parametric and polar curves.

Course Learning Outcomes: After completing this course, the learning outcomes are as follows:

 Understand to use the derivative of a function to determine the properties of the graph of the function and use the graph of a function to estimate its
derivative.
 To analyze and find new results using various techniques.
 Apply the concepts of calculus students will be able to explaining everything from planetary orbits to the optimal size of a city to the periodicity of a heartbeat.

1. Pedagogy for Course Delivery: The course pedagogy will include Four quadrant approach i.e. video lectures, presentations, e-content, discussions and
assessments.
2. All the topics covered in the syllabus will be correlated with its applications in real life situations and also in other disciplines.
3. In order to inculcate problem solving ability in students’ time-to-time quiz, viva, home assignments and class tests will be conducted during the progress
of semester.
4. Extra sessions for revision will be undertaken.
