Course Descriptions:
Calculus and analytical geometry is a first semester Calculus course. Topics covered include real
number and real line , coordinates lines and increment, functions and trigonometric functions, limits, the
derivative, differentiation techniques, applications of the derivative, integration, and applications of
integration.
I. Course Objectives:
Purpose of this course is to build the student's knowledge of differential/integral
calculus of multi-variable functions based on their past experience of differential/integral calculus
and analytic geometry of functions of one independent variable.
The main aim of this course is to give students some basic ideas of calculus, which is the
mathematics of motion. The purpose is not just making the students learn these ideas but
to enable them apply these ideas to solve problems of practical nature. It will help the
students of engineering, computer science and bioinformatics to understand and solve
the problems of mathematical and logical nature in other courses of these disciplines.

Note: The final presentation is due in the last 2 weeks of the class. Students will present
their projects using MS Power Point for their presentations/or any other tool / technique
to convince the audience (it is strongly advised that all tools should be tested well before
the class presentation to avoid unnecessary delay due to tech issues). Each student will be
given 10-15 minutes to complete their presentation and 5 minutes for the class to ask
questions about the presentation. Presentation sessions may be little longer than the usual
class time. If we are not able to complete all the presentations within the scheduled
classes, extra classes will be arranged.
Instructor wishes you every success and hope you would enjoy the course and find it
something that has made you worthy of market as a young researcher, consultant or
middle manager.
