MA104 introduces the core concepts of differential and integral calculus, including limits, derivatives, integrals, and their applications. Students develop the ability to analyze and model change in one variable, solve real-world optimization and accumulation problems, and interpret the results of mathematical models. The course emphasizes conceptual understanding, problem-solving, and communication of results, with applications that may be drawn from areas such as the natural sciences, social sciences, engineering, and real-world decision-making contexts.
This is the second semester of the mathematics core curriculum. It provides a foundation for the continued study of mathematics and for the subsequent study of the physical sciences, the social sciences, and engineering. MA104 covers topics in single variable differential and integral calculus, parametric equations, 3-dimensional geometry, and vectors. Throughout the course, mathematical models motivate the study of topics such as optimization, accumulation, change in one variable, motion in space, 1st order differential equations, and other topics from the natural, social, and decision sciences. An understanding of course material is enhanced through the use of computer algebra systems.

This is the second semester of the mathematics core curriculum. This course and Calculus II, the third semester of the mathematics core curriculum, provide a foundation for the continued study of mathematics and for the subsequent study of the physical sciences, the social sciences, and engineering. Combined coverage includes single and multi-variable differential calculus, single and multi-variable integral calculus, and differential equations. Throughout both courses mathematical models motivate the study of topics such as optimization, accumulation, change in one and several variables, differential equations, motion in space, and other topics from the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the decision sciences. MA104 covers single and multi-variable differential calculus including 3-dimensional geometry and vectors.

These are the second and third semesters of the mathematics core curriculum. They provide a foundation for the continued study of mathematics and for the subsequent study of physical sciences, social sciences, and engineering. Topics in single variable and multivariable calculus, and elementary ordinary differential equations are studied. MA104 covers the differential calculus, the integral calculus of a single variable, and differential equations. MA205 investigates parametric equations and the study of multivariable calculus including 3-dimensional geometry and vectors, functions of two variables, partial derivatives, and multiple integrals. MA205 culminates with an introduction to the mathematics most applicable to each cadet's major or engineering stem. In each course, an understanding of course material is enhanced through the use of computer algebra systems and a graphing calculator.
