Course Description:

The course reviews the concepts of basic calculus, including Limits, continuity, differentiation and
integration. A brief account of three-dimensional geometry is also included as pre-calculus review.
Stress is laid on applications of differentiation and integration to practical/engineering problems.
Convergence/divergence of the sequence and series are included towards the end of the syllabus.

Course Objectives:

The course objective is that its successful completion should develop understanding of the basic
concepts of analytical geometry involving limits, continuity, differentiation and integration for
solving the real world problems and analyzing the convergence/divergence of sequence and series.

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs):

After successful completion of the course, the students should be able to: PLO BT Level*
CLO-1: Use the concept of limit, continuity and derivative and apply it to find

Grading Policy:

Quiz Policy: The quizzes will be unannounced and normally last for ten minutes. The question
framed is to test the concepts involved in last few lectures. Number of quizzes that
will be used for evaluation is at the instructor’s discretion. Grading for quizzes will
be on a fixed scale of 0 to 10. A score of 10 indicates an exceptional attempt towards
the answer and a score of 1 indicates your answer is entirely wrong but you made a
reasonable effort towards the solution. Scores in between indicate very good (8-9),
good (6-7), satisfactory (4-5), and poor (2-3) attempt. Failure to make a reasonable
effort to answer a question scores a 0.

Assignment Policy: In order to develop comprehensive understanding of the subject, assignments will be
given. Late assignments will not be accepted / graded. All assignments will count
towards the total (No ‘best-of’ policy). The students are advised to do the
assignment themselves. Copying of assignments is highly discouraged and violations
will be dealt with severely by referring any occurrences to the disciplinary
committee. The questions in the assignment are meant to be challenging to give
students confidence and extensive knowledge about the subject matter and enable
them to prepare for the exams.

Plagiarism: SEECS maintains a zero tolerance policy towards plagiarism. While collaboration in
this course is highly encouraged, you must ensure that you do not claim other
people’s work/ ideas as your own. Plagiarism occurs when the words, ideas,
assertions, theories, figures, images, programming codes of others are presented as
your own work. You must cite and acknowledge all sources of information in your
assignments. Failing to comply with the SEECS plagiarism policy will lead to strict
penalties including zero marks in assignments and referral to the academic
coordination office for disciplinary action.
