Description

This module deals with the application of differentiation to max/min problems. The exponential and logarithmic functions are introduced. The course also develops skills in the techniques of integration. Application of integration to area, mean value and r.m.s. are also examined. A very basic introduction to first and second order differential equations is given.

Learning Outcomes

1. Use various integration techniques
2. Solve basic first and second order differential equations
3. Consider various applications of integration
4. Apply differential calculus in different areas of science

Resit arrangements are explained by the following categories: Resit category 1: A resit is available for both* components of the module. Resit category 2: No resit is available for a 100% continuous assessment module. Resit category 3: No resit is available for the continuous assessment component where there is a continuous assessment and examination element.
* ‘Both’ is used in the context of the module having a Continuous Assessment/Examination split; where the module is 100% continuous assessment, there will also be a resit of the assessment
