MTH 211 Calculus and Analytic Geometry I

Calculus is the precise and quantitative study of change. This course explores the notions of an instantaneous rate of change and accumulation of infinitesimally small quantities. This course emphasizes conceptual understanding, not just computational fluency, and students will reason about the concepts in applied, numerical, graphical, algebraic/analytic, and verbal contexts. Topics include functions and limits, and derivatives. Pre-requisite(s): MTH 103 or equivalent of departmental approval. Co-requisite(s): None. 5 quarter hours
