COURSE NUMBER: MATH 38

COURSE TITLE: MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS III

COURSE PREREQUISITE: MATH 37
COURSE DESCRIPTION: Infinite series, techniques and applications of partial differentiation and
multiple integration.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
Upon completion of the course, the student must be able to:
1. determine convergence or divergence of infinite series using appropriate tests;
2. find the interval of convergence of a power series;
3. find the power series representation of functions;
4. determine limits and continuity of a function at a point and over a set;
5. find partial derivatives ( explicit, implicit, chain rule, higher order );
6. find directional derivatives ( if they exist );
7. find equations of tangent plane and normal line to a surface;
8. find extreme values of functions ( constrained or unconstrained case ); and
9. evaluate multiple integrals using rectangular, polar, cylindrical and spherical coordinates
