Specific objectives stated by the academic staff for academic year 2025-26

The primary objective of Mathematics II is to facilitate the acquisition of a robust command of the language, concepts, and fundamental techniques of differential and integral calculus in a real variable. Throughout the course, students are expected to develop the following skills and knowledge:

  1. Fluency in the terminology and fundamental concepts of differential and integral calculus, including limits, derivatives, integrals, and their applications.
  2. The ability to apply the concepts and techniques of calculus to solve practical problems in various areas, such as physics and engineering.
  3. Students will be introduced to ordinary differential equations, acquiring a basic understanding of these concepts and the ability to solve simple first-order differential equations and higher-order linear equations with constant coefficients.
  4. Students will become familiar with the basic concepts of numerical methods and acquire the ability to use appropriate tools to solve numerical computation problems.
  5. Students will develop the ability to interpret and analyze the results obtained, understanding the meaning of the solutions in the context of the problem posed and evaluating their validity and consistency.
