Calculus I
MATH 120, St. Olaf College, MSCS Department, 2023
Course Description: This course introduces differential and integral calculus of functions of a single real variable, including trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions. Derivatives, integrals, and differential equations are explored graphically, symbolically, and numerically. Applications of these topics are emphasized throughout the course.
Course Goals: Through the lens of calculus, we will:
- approach problems from multiple perspectives, employing a variety of strategies.
- recognize and employ patterns, structures, and models appropriate to particular theoretical or contextual problems.
- represent and interpret information in numeric, symbolic, or graphical forms.
