Textbook

Peter Baxandall and Hans Liebeck, Vector Calculus, Dover 1986

Prerequisites

Linear Algebra (Math 2700) and Multivariable Calculus (Math 2730).

Course Objectives

Much of the content of this course overlaps what you learned in multivariable calculus. A first course in multivariable calculus typically does not require the prior study of linear algebra. Much of what we learn in multivariable calculus is better understood by making a stronger connection to linear algebra. Also, a first course in multivariable calculus is normally restricted to two and three dimensions. In Math 3740, we will also do what we can in higher dimensions.
