Course Contents/Objectives/Teaching Method/Intended Learning Outcome

The students will learn partial differential calculus of functions of two variables, the extreme value problem and integration of functions of one and two variables. The knowledge in the course "Introduction to Calculus" in the spring semester will be required for taking this course. Exercises will be held in the lecture to deepen the understanding of the lecture content. The content and order of lectures may differ slightly from the description of the syllabus.

Method of Evaluation

Grades will be evaluated based on examinations and class participation (attendance, behavior, class assignments, etc.).

Generative AI Policy for Classes

In this course, emphasis is placed on students' own thinking and expressive abilities.
Therefore, the use of generative Al is, in principle, prohibited for solving report assignments. If Al use is discovered, the work may be excluded from evaluation or treated as academic misconduct and subject to disciplinary measures. If you are unsure about what is permitted, please consult the lecturer in advance.
