Course Objectives and Outcomes:


The main objective of Calculus and Analytic Geometry for students is to continue
learning the basics of the calculus of functions of one variable. They will study functions,
their types, limit and continuity of a function, derivatives, rate of change, chain rule, the
concepts and techniques of integration, maxima and minima for the function of one
variable, power series sequence and series, Taylor’s and Maclaurin’s series and its
applications.
Ultimate Objectives:
Calculus is the mathematics of change, this is a basic mathematics study that allows one
to solve a great many problems. The overall objectives of calculus are to understand
mathematical ideas with a depth and flexibility that allows students to apply it in their
discipline. The students should be able to interpret the concepts of Calculus algebraically,
graphically and verbally. More generally, the students will improve their ability to think
critically, to analyze a problem and solve it using a wide array of tools. Students must
understand the principles of both their discipline and the calculus, be able to translate
situations in their discipline into mathematical models, have the knowledge and skill to
solve problems in the model, and then be able to translate mathematical solutions back
into your discipline.
