MATH 231 Calculus III

This course covers differential and integral calculus for multivariable functions. First, students learn calculus tools such as partial derivatives, directional derivatives, gradients and how to apply them to analyze functions and solve constrained optimization problems. Subsequently, multiple integrals and their applications to calculate areas, volumes, mass and center of mass will be discussed. The course concludes with topics from vector calculus and key theorems such as Green's theorem, Stokes’ theorem, and Gauss's theorem.
