Math 324A,B: Advanced Multivariable Calculus I

Professor Monty (William) McGovern 
Spring 2012


Instructor:
Monty (or William) McGovern
Office: Padelford C-450
Phone: 206-543-1149
Email: mcgovern@math.washington.edu
Office Hours: TTh 1:30 and by appointment, Padelford C-450
Lectures:
Monday, Wednesday & Friday, 8:30-9:20, 9:30_10:20 a.m., Mechanical Engineering Building 246,103
Prerequisites:
Math 126 or the equivalent. 
Exams:

1st Midterm: Friday, October 19, in class.
2nd Midterm: Friday, November 16, in class.
Final: Wednesday, December 12, 8:30-10:20, in class (9:30 section); Monday, December 10, 8:30-10:20 (10:30 section).

Grading:
Your grade will be based equally on homework, two midterms, and a final. In case you must miss a midterm, I would very much appreciate ADVANCE NOTICE so that other arrangements can be made to take it. If you cannot complete a homework assignment on time, you can always turn it in by 3:00 on the day it is due to the grader's mailbox (24)(the grader's email is weinkaufdan@gmail.com). PLEASE turn in WHATEVER YOU CAN rather than nothing. In all tests you may use two letter-sized pages (one sheet front and back of notes in your own handwriting).
Incompletes and Drops:
The grade of Incomplete will be given ONLY if a student has been doing satisfactory work until the end of the quarter and then misses the final exam for a documented illness, religious reason, or family emergency.
What to Expect:
We will continue the treatment in Math 126, focussing mostly on integration; more specfically, we will learn about some of the integrals that have been defined in higher dimensions and the relationships between these integrals.
