Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content

These papers extend the one–variable calculus from MATHS101 Introduction to Calculus to the calculus of functions of more than one variable. Many of the topics covered provide a synthesis of calculus and geometry (from MATHS102). The mathematics studied is of fundamental and equal importance to engineers and non-engineers. Therefore, MATHS201 and ENGEN201 are substantially the same, and share the same classroom during the first 8 weeks. During the last 4 weeks, the ENGEN201 stream is joined by MATHS203 class, and continues with Fourier series, PDEs, and systems of ODEs (used to be taught in ENGG284).

Learning Outcomes

Edit Learning Outcomes Content

Students who successfully complete the course should be able to:

  • First 8 weeks:

    1. Compute the tangent line, arc length and work integrals over a parametrized curve.

    2. Calculate the gradient vector of a multivariable function, and apply the chain rule.

    3. Calculate the Taylor expansion of a multivariable function.

    4. Solve unconstrained and equality constrained optimization problems in up to three variables.

    5. Compute multivariable integrals (in Cartesian and polar coordinates).

    6. Use integration to compute volumes and moments of solid bodies.

    Linked to the following assessments:
  • Last 4 weeks:

    7. Compute Fourier series.

    8. Solve PDEs by the method of separation of variables.

Assessment

Edit Assessments Content

The assessment mark will consist of :

TWO Tests each worth 15% for a total of 30%

  • test dates: see table below
  • If a test is missed due to illness or other good reason, the lecturer must be notified as soon as practicable. Appropriate documentation (for example a medical certificate issued by a doctor) must be supplied. Should the reason be accepted an estimated grade for the missed work will be used. The estimated grade will be based on results in other assessments including the final examination and on the distribution of grades in the missed assessment.

A workshop grade worth 5%

  • There will be 11 workshops and the best 9 marks will be counted.
  • The best 9 out of 11 policy is intended to allow students to miss one or two workshops due to illness or other good reason without requiring us to process medical certificates. Where serious illness may cause a more prolonged absence, please consult the lecturer.

A tutorial component of 15%

  • There will be 10 tutorial based assignments of which only the best 8 marks will be counted. Assignments should be your own work and copying may lead to referral to the university disciplinary committee.
  • The best 8 out of 10 policy is intended to allow students to miss one or two assignments due to illness or other good reason without requiring us to process medical certificates. Where serious illness may cause a more prolonged absence, please consult the lecturer.

The FINAL EXAM worth 50%.

  • In order to pass this paper with an unrestricted grade (Grade C- or better) you must get an overall total of 50% or greater, and ALSO at least 40% in the final exam. If your overall grade is greater than 50% but you get less than 40% in the final examination you will be awarded the grade of RP(restricted pass) which cannot be used as a prerequisite.

The internal assessment/exam ratio (as stated in the University Calendar) is 50:50. There is no final exam. The final exam makes up 50% of the overall mark.

The internal assessment/exam ratio (as stated in the University Calendar) is 50:50 or 0:0, whichever is more favourable for the student. The final exam makes up either 50% or 0% of the overall mark.
