Prerequisites: Math 3137 with a grade of C- or higher or transfer credit for Math 3137.
Textbook: Gerald G. Bilodeau, Paul R Thie, G. E. Keough, An Introduction to Analysis, Second Edition, Jones and Bartlett Publishers, 2010, ISBN: 9780763774929.
Course Goals: This is part two of the first course in Mathematical Analysis. Its object is to provide theoretical underpinnings to concepts familiar to students from calculus.
Topics Covered: Derivative, The Mean Value Theorem and its applications, the Riemann integral, infinite series, complex numbers.
Course Grading: The grade will be based on 2 tests, the final and several quizzes. Each test will count for 25% of your grade, the final for 30%, and quizzes for 20%. In the first week I will give you a Review Quiz based on the epsilon-definitions a) of the limit of a sequence, and b) 0f continuity. The Review Quiz counts 2%. Homework will be assigned at the end of every class but will not be collected. Instead, I will begin each class by answering homework questions. In addition, at the end of every week of classes, excluding the weeks preceding the two tests, I will give you a quiz consisting of selected homework problems. Please note that it is very important to do all your homework, as the exams will be based on homework. I will periodically check your homework.
Exam Dates: To be announced.
Attendance Policy: Regular attendance is expected. If you miss a class, please contact me by e-mail in order to find out what material you have missed and what homework problems have been assigned.
Calculator Policy: No calculators will be allowed on any of the tests. Calculator use when doing your homework is discouraged.
Numeric-to-Letter Grade Scale: 93-100 A, 90-92 A-, 87-89 B+, 83-86 B, 80-82 B-, 77-79 C+, 73-76 C, 70-72 C-, 65-69 D+, 55-64 D, 50-54 D-, 0-49 F.
Make Up Policy: No make ups for missed exams will be given except in cases of DOCUMENTED emergencies.

Any student who has a need for accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact me privately to discuss the specific situation as soon as possible. Contact Disability Resources and Services at (215) 204-1280, 100 Ritter Annex, to coordinate reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities.

Freedom to teach and freedom to learn are inseparable facets of academic freedom. The University has adopted a policy on Student and Faculty Academic Rights and Responsibilities (Policy # 03.70.02) which can be accessed here.

Students will be charged for a course unless a withdrawal form is processed by a registration office of the University by the Drop/Add deadline date given below. For this semester, the crucial dates are as follows:

• The first day of classes is Tuesday, January 17.
• The last day to drop/add (tuition refund available) is Monday, January 30.
• Spring recess is the week of Sunday, March 4.
• The last day to withdraw (no refund) is Monday, March 20.
• The last day of classes is Monday, April 30.

During the first two weeks of the fall or spring semester or summer sessions, students may withdraw from a course with no record of the class appearing on the transcript. In weeks three through nine of the fall or spring semester, or during weeks three and four of summer sessions, the student may withdraw with the advisor's permission. The course will be recorded on the transcript with the instructor's notation of "W," indicating that the student withdrew. After week nine of the fall or spring semester, or week four of summer sessions, students may not withdraw from courses. No student may withdraw from more than five courses during the duration of his/her studies to earn a bachelor's degree. A student may not withdraw from the same course more than once. Students who miss the final exam and do not make alternative arrangements before the grades are turned in will be graded F.

The grade I (an "incomplete") is reserved for extreme circumstances. It is necessary to have completed almost all of the course with a passing average and to file an incomplete contract specifying what is left for you to do. To be eligible for an I grade you need a good reason and you should have missed not more than 25% of the first nine weeks of classes. If approved by the Mathematics Department chair and the CST Dean's office, the incomplete contract must include a default grade that will be used in case the I grade is not resolved within 12 months.
