MATH 1020: Calculus

This course focuses on single variable calculus through graphical, analytical, and numerical techniques. Differentiation and its applications are thoroughly discussed. Basic integration techniques are introduced. Mathematical manipulation and computational competence is equally weighted with the ability to analyze, evaluate, synthesize and form accurate decisions using relevant information in applied settings.

Prerequisite Knowledge

Mastery of algebra and trigonometry is assumed in this course, as well as general mathematical problem solving. Without the use of technology, students are expected to demonstrate proper mathematical notation, definitions, and algebraic manipulation of the following types of functions: polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, sinusoidal and their inverses.
