MATH 1101 Calculus II

MATH1101 is not open to students who have completed MATH1103. Students contemplating majors in Chemistry, Computer Science B.A. or B.S., Environmental Geosciences, Geological Sciences, Mathematics or Physics should enroll in MATH1103. For further information about selecting your Math courses given your background, please see this link to theBC Math Department. MATH1101 is a second course in the calculus of one variable intended for students studying life or social sciences, such as biology, neuroscience, economics, management and premedical students. It is open to others who are qualified and desire a more rigorous mathematics course at the core level. There are three main topics: integration (definition of integration, basic techniques for integration, and select applications); an introduction to differential equations (with applications to population modeling and other contexts); an introduction to multivariable functions and partial derivatives (with application to optimization in economics and other contexts).
