Training objectives

The course aims to introduce students to the study of the calculus with functions of several variables. Moreover, the course will provide essential implements to apply partial derivatives to the study of functions of several variables, finding largest and smallest values of a function, to obtain qualitative information about the shape of the graph, to calculate the volume under a surface. Moreover, the course will provide some of the basic elements of differential equations and Fourier Series.

At the end of the course, the student should get the ability to solve maximum and minimum problems for functions of several variables, to obtain the equation of the tangent plane, to calculate double and triple integrals, to solve some classes of differential equations, to develop a function in Fourier Series.

Prerequisites

The student must be acquainted with calculus for functions of a real variable.
