MATH 2300: Calculus 2
Introduction
This course is a continuation of MATH 1300: Calculus 1. Throughout the semester, we will explore techniques of integration, improper integrals, and applications of integration, alongside sequences, series, and differential equations.
Our course follows an active learning model. Research indicates that mathematics is mastered through participation rather than observation. To support this, our sections are kept small to facilitate group work, problem-solving, and conceptual discovery.
