Correspondence between the numerical and letter grades: 93-100 A, 90-92 A-, 87-89 B+, 83-86 B, 80-82 B-, 77-79 C+, 73-76 C, 65-72 C-, 55-64 D, 0-54 F.
A grade of C or higher in Math 1042, Calculus II, or transfer credit for Math 1042.
1. You will learn about vectors (sketching, dot product, and cross Product). We will describe the lines and planes in space.
2. You will learn vector functions and also learn to compute their derivatives and integrals. and then apply them to compute arelength.
3. You will learn about function of several variables and learn to compute their partial derivatives.
4. You will apply partial derivatives to practice problems including, tangent planes, approximation, and directional derivatives.
5. You will learn to find maximum/minimum and lagrange multipliers.
6. You will learn to compute double integral ( in cartesian and polar coordinates) and triple integrals ( in cartesian, cylinderical, and spherical coordinates) over some regions.
7. You will compute volume and surface area using multiple integrals.
8. You will learn to compute line integral, line integral using the Fundamental theorem, and surface integral. You will then connect the line integral, surface integral, and multiple integral in the form of Green's Theorem, Stokes' theorem, and Divergence theorem
Vectors in two and three dimensions, vector valued functions, functions of several variables, partial derivatives, multiple integrals, integral calculus of vector fields.
Test 1 - Friday, February 20, (5:30-7:00 pm);
Test 2 - Friday, April 10, (5:30-7:00 pm);
Final Exam - Wednesday, April 29, (3:30 - 5:30 pm).
You must set the above times aside for the tests. Students with DRS Accommodations will have their tests rescheduled automatically. Otherwise, the only exceptions will be those with documented emergencies as per the policy below.
Attendance is required. Students who miss more than 4 TR classes without an excuse will have their grades lowered by one notch (e.g., from B to B-). Those who miss more than 8 TR classes without an excuse will have their grades lowered by two notches, etc.
There will be a 20-25 min. quiz every week (when there is no midterm). Each quiz will consist of 4-5 problems similar to the ones assigned from the textbook. There will be no make-up quiz.
Final Exam will be on Wednesday, April 29, (3:30 - 5:30 pm). Exam rooms will be announced at least one week in advance of the exam. Important: please note that if you miss the final exam and do not make alternative arrangements before the grades are turned in, your grade for the course will be F.
There will be no regularly scheduled make up exams. In the case of a DOCUMENTED EMERGENCY that prevents a student from taking a test as scheduled, the student must contact the instructor, the course coordinator (Dr. Chaudhry at chaudhry@temple.edu), and Director of Advising and Coordinated Courses (Professor Datskovsky at bdats@temple.edu) immediately in order to discuss alternative arrangements.
A list of homework problems from the textbook will be distributed. Homework (all or a subset of it) will asked to be done and collected on Canvas.
This is a registered CANVAS course. Please check CANVAS daily for important announcements.
The following academic support services are available to students (all links open in a new tab/window):
The Math Consulting Center
Student Success Center
University Libraries

Disability Resources and Services
If you are experiencing food insecurity or financial struggles, Temple provides resources and support. Notably, the Temple University Cherry Pantry and the Temple University Emergency Student Aid Program are in operation as well as a variety of resources from the Division of Student Affairs.
To achieve course learning goals, students must attend and participate in classes, according to the course requirements. However, if you have tested positive for or are experiencing symptoms of a contagious illness, you should not come to campus or attend in-person classes or activities. It is the student’s responsibility to contact me to create a plan for participation and engagement in the course as soon as you are able to do so, and to make a plan to complete all assignments in a timely fashion.
It is important to foster a respectful and productive learning environment that includes all students in our diverse community of learners. Our differences, some of which are outlined in the University's nondiscrimination statement, will add richness to this learning experience. Therefore, all opinions and experiences, no matter how different or controversial they may be perceived, must be respected in the tolerant spirit of academic discourse.
Any student who has a need for accommodations based on the impact of a documented disability or medical condition should contact Disability Resources and Services (DRS) in Howard Gittis Student Center South, Rm 420 (drs@temple.edu; 215-204-1280) to request accommodations and learn more about the resources available to you. If you have a DRS accommodation letter to share with me, or you would like to discuss your accommodations, please contact me as soon as practical. I will work with you and with DRS to coordinate reasonable accommodations for all students with documented disabilities. All discussions related to your accommodations will be confidential.
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 (opens in new tab/window).
Students will be charged for a course unless dropped by the Drop/Add deadline date. Check the University calendar (opens in new tab/window) for exact dates.
During the Drop/Add period, students may drop a course with no record of the class appearing on their transcript. Students are not financially responsible for any courses dropped during this period. In the following weeks prior to or on the withdrawal date students may withdraw from a course with the grade of "W" appearing on their transcript. After the withdrawal date students may not withdraw from courses. Check the University Calendar (opens in new tab/window) for exact dates. See the full policy by clicking here (opens in new tab/window).
The use of generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT, DALL-E, etc.) is not permitted in this class unless specifically announced for a particular assignment; therefore, any use of AI tools for work in this class may be considered a violation of Temple University's Academic Honesty policy and Student Conduct Code, since the work is not your own. The use of unauthorized AI tools will result in a grade of zero on the assignment; a second offense will be reported to the Student Conduct Board.
The grade "I" (an "incomplete") is only given if students cannot complete the course work due to circumstances beyond their control. It is necessary for the student to have completed the majority of the course work with a passing average and to sign an incomplete contract which clearly states what is left for the student to do and the deadline by which the work must be completed. The incomplete contract must also include a default grade that will be used in case the "I" grade is not resolved by the agreed deadline.
