Math 120, Math 121 and Math 122 (Calculus I, II, and III) / Lecture
Calculus is essential for majors in biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, physics, and environmental science and policy. Math 120 (Calculus I) includes functions, limits, continuity, differentiation of algebraic and trigonometric functions, mean value theorem, and various applications. Math 121 (Calculus II) includes Riemann sums and integrals, techniques and applications of integration, improper integrals, transcendental functions (logarithms, exponential functions, and inverse trigonometric functions). Math 122 (Calculus III) includes further topics from calculus proper (sequences, series, polar coordinates) and introduces linear algebra (vectors, matrices, and linear systems). Though not all results are derived rigorously, care is taken to distinguish intuitive arguments from rigorous proofs. Math 120, 121, and 122 fulfill the Formal Analysis requirement. Math 122 is a prerequisite for Math 131 for students who have taken Math 120-121. Prerequisite for Math 120: appropriate score on the mathematics placement test, or appropriate grade in Math 119.
