Cálculo II

Base Knowledge

Mathematics and Calculus I.

Teaching Methodologies

In theoretical classes, a theoretical exposition of each subject is made, which is complemented in the theoretical-practical classes by the study of practical examples and by solving exercises to apply the knowledge acquired. The practical-laboratory classes are taught, if possible, in a computer room to deal with the subjects using MATLAB software – the use of software will allow a deepening of the concepts and a better understanding by the student, allowing solving  more complexes problems.

 

Learning Results

Understand and apply the basic concepts of differentiation and integration of functions with several variables. Find the derivatives and integrals of functions with several variables. Understand and apply the basic concepts of vector analysis. Recognize the importance of the material taught in the area of biomedical engineering. Use the MATLAB software in the numerical treatment of the subjects and compare, with criticism, the results obtained by computational means with the ones obtained analytically. Base problem solving on mathematics. Select appropriately the available information (from monographs, textbooks, internet, …). Expose the problems’ solution in a clear and simple way. Show interest and autonomy in teamwork.
