Lecture, homework and lab schedule

Math 2374: IT Multivariable Calculus and Vector Analysis
Fall 2009

For each day, we list the sections we expect to cover in lecture and the homework problems that are assigned, along with the due date. To aid your studies, we also list suggested problems, which you do not hand in. The solutions for most of the suggested problems can be found in the Student Study Guide for the textbook (which is on reserve in the Math Library in 310 Vincent Hall). The best way to approach homework is to solve the suggested problems, check your answers at the end of your textbook, and then move on to the assigned problems.

** The assigned homework problems that start with an "S" refer to this sample final. **

Homework is due at the beginning of lecture on Fridays (to the instructor, not to your TA), and no late assignments will be accepted! If you cannot come to lecture, you will need to hand in your homework earlier; email your instructor to make arrangements.

Lab writeups are given to the TA during the corresponding week's lab. Check problems due and concrete dates in the table at the end of this document.
