Note that you’ll need the version that gives you access to MyMathLab. Our text for this course and for Math 121 is University Calculus, Early Transcendentals, Single Variable by Hass and Weir, third edition. See goals for an outline of the course goals including knowledge, intellectual and practical skills, skepticism and the mathematical mind, and integrating knowledge and skills
Next semester, Math 121, covers techniques of integration, applications of integration, a short introduction to differential equations, sequences, series, and power series.
Topics include functions, limits, continuity, differentiation of algebraic and trigonometric functions, mean value theorem, applications of derivatives, definition of integrals and their basic properties, and the FTC. This first semester, Math 120, includes differential calculus, the concept of integration, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC) which connects differentiation to integration. Besides the computational aspects of calculus, we will develop the concepts of calculus with some rigor. This is the first course in a two-semester calculus sequence designed for students majoring in a field that requires the tools of calculus. pass Math 119, Precalculus, or Math 114, Discrete Mathematics, with an appropriate gradeįor more information on what mathematics you should know before taking this course, see the page on Calculus Background.have passed the Advanced Placement test in Calculus, 4 or 5 required, or.pass the math placement test, available, anytime.In order to register for Math 120, you need to either Offered every fall (120) and spring (121).Ĭlark University Academic Catalog for information on the Honors Calculus sequence (Math 124 and 125). Prerequisite for Math 121: Math 120, or Math 124, or AP credit in Calculus. Prerequisite for Math 120: appropriate score on the mathematics placement test, or appropriate grade in Math 119. Math 120 and 121 each fulfill the Formal Analysis requirement. Though not all results are derived rigorously, care is taken to distinguish intuitive arguments from rigorous proofs. Part II includes Riemann sums and integrals, techniques and applications of integration, improper integrals, transcendental functions (logarithms, exponential functions, and inverse trigonometric functions), sequences, and series. Part I includes functions, limits, continuity, differentiation of algebraic and trigonometric functions, mean value theorem, and various applications. Math 120 and 121 (Calculus I and II) / LectureĬalculus is essential for majors in biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, physics, and environmental science and policy.
