1. Course Description: The course is intended as a basic course in calculus of several variables and vector
analysis. The geometry of objects in two- or three-dimensional spaces is studied: near a point on them (locally)
using differentiation and on the whole (globally) using integration. It includes polar coordinates, convergence
of sequences and series, Maclaurin and Taylor series, partial derivatives, vector calculus leading to theorems
of Green, Stokes and Gauss.

2. Scope and Objective of the Course:

● Calculus is fundamental to every branch of science and engineering, as all dynamics is modeled
through differential and integral equations.
● Functions of several variables appear frequently in science.
● The derivatives of the functions of several variables are more interesting because of the several degrees
of freedom available.
● The integrals of the functions of several variables occur in several places such as probability, fluid
dynamics, electrical sciences, just to name a few. All lead in a natural way to functions of several
variables.
● The objective of the course is to lay the foundations for these topics.
