     Weekly  Schedules


Course description: This course includes most of the standard material for vector calculus and complex analysis. We'll use a computer algebra system Maple 13  in this course for some computer projects.  You can find a list of topics here.
It is expected that you will work most of the basic exercises at the end of each section. A list of additional problems to work will be placed at the course webpage (see homework problems). It is recommended to  write down solutions of these problems and keep your homework to use in  preparation for quizzes, mid-term and final exams. Every week we'll have a quiz containing two or three problems analogous to ones solved in class and from homework. If you have any questions about problems, please ask them in class or  during office hours.

Exams


Grades and Makeup Policy

Grades will be assigned using a sliding scale. The usual passing level "C" is between 65% and 68%. Someone with 88% may get "A". After each test we'll get an approximate passing level. Do not panic if your grade seems low, come and talk with me  about your perfomance.Various numbers below  determine  the relative weights of exams' and quizzes'  grades: Total number of points 500. The final exam - 200 points. Each midterm exam - 100 points,  quizzes grade - 100.

In general, there will be NO makeups for exams. If you miss an exam for a valid well-documented reason then arrangements may be made on an individual basis.


Academic Integrity

You are responsible for making yourself aware of and understanding the policies and procedures in the Graduate Catalog (pp. 26-28) that pertain to Academic Integrity. These policies include cheating, fabrication, falsification and forgery, multiple submission, plagiarism, complicity and computer misuse. If there is reason to believe you have been involved in academic dishonesty, you will be referred to the Office of Student Conduct. You will be given the opportunity to review the charge(s). If you believe you are not responsible, you will have the opportunity for a hearing. You should consult with me if you are uncertain about an issue of academic honesty prior to the submission of an assignment or test.
