Calculus II

Course Overview

Calculus II covers integral calculus, differential equations, and sequences and series. The course is intended as the second part of a sequence that begins with Calculus I. Integral calculus emphasizes advanced techniques of integration and their applications. Once students have shown competence with both integral and differential calculus, they are prepared for differential equations and sequences and series. The differential equations unit is designed to provide students with an introduction to the topic, which will give them an advantage when they take a more thorough differential equations course. The unit on sequences and series focuses primarily on tests for convergence and divergence, power series, expressing functions as power series, and Taylor/Maclaurin series.
