MTH (0144) 145 - Calculus for Scientific Computing


Credits: 4.00

Students will study the concepts of calculus with an emphasis on applications in the natural  sciences. Students will explore limits, continuous functions, differentiation with biological applications, and integration with biological applications. Students will also learn and apply multivariable calculus, matrices, differential equations, probability, and discrete dynamical systems. 

Prerequisite 1: MTH 140  
Free Note: Students Cannot Get Credit For Math 145 If They Have Taken Math 141, 142, or 243.

 

Students will:

  • Learn and apply the key techniques and theory used in differential and integral calculus, including limits, derivatives, and integration. This will be measured by Quizzes 1-4, Examination 1, and the Final Exam.
  • Learn and apply the key techniques and theory used in multivariable calculus, including limits and derivatives. This will be measured by Quizzes 5-7, Examination 2, and the Final Exam.
  • Apply the theory of matrices, differential equations, probability, and discrete dynamical systems to the solution to problems in the natural sciences. This will be measured by Quizzes 8-10 and the Final Exam.
