Prerequisites

Calculus in one variable 1, Linear Algebra

Intended learning outcomes

Gain familiarity with mathematical concepts, reasoning and relationships in multivariable calculus and linear differential equations in one variable, and gain the calculation and problem solving skills needed for further studies. After completing this course you should be able to

cite and explain the definitions of the course's key concepts, such as topological fundamental concepts, functions, limits, continuity, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, functional determinants etc..
handle differential equations (first order linear, separable and higher order linear equations with constant coefficients).
quote, explain and use the course central theorems, such as the chain rule, change of variables in multiple integrals, the relationship between gradients and directional derivatives, theorems concerning multiple integral properties etc..
solving some partial differential equations using the chain rule.
verify that results are correct or reasonable.
calculate the directional derivatives and tangent-, normal- and tangent plane equations and explain and use the concepts geometrical significance in problem solving.
compute multiple integrals using repeated integration, change of variables (e.g. polar, spherical and linear).

Course content
