E. Program Objectives

Objectives of the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics

The BS Mathematics program has the following objectives:

1. To prepare the student who plans to take immediately a math oriented job and computer
programming in business, industry or in the government.
2. To prepare the student who has plans to teach math and computer up to the junior
undergraduate level.
3. To prepare the student who plans to take up graduate studies either in math or in computer
or in applied math or related fields.
II. COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course covers calculus of functions of several variables, sequences, infinite series and
power series.
III. COURSE OBJECTIVES

A. General Objectives
At the end of the course, the students should be able to discuss, use, and apply theorems,
concepts, principles and theorems of the basic techniques of differentiation and integration of
algebraic and transcendental functions in the solution of real life problems, as well as those
problems posed for the aesthetic and creative value; provide students with abundant knowledge
and skills in solving problems involving higher order derivative, implicit differentiation and their
applications and to prepare students for higher-level of Mathematics by using concepts of
indeterminate forms, partial derivatives and techniques of integration.

B. Specific Objectives
Specifically, the student should be able to:
1. Find first partial derivatives of multivariable functions
2. Find first partial derivatives at a specific point
3. Find the second partial derivatives of multivariable functions.
4. Evaluate limits of indeterminate forms of functions using derivatives
5. Evaluate partial derivatives of functions of two or more variables
6. Use the rules of integration including the substitution method and evaluate indefinite and
definite integral
7. Integrate various kinds of functions by using the rules of integration, the substitution, and
integration by parts .etc.
8. Relate the concepts of integration and apply some consequences to solve mathematical
problems.
9. Apply the convergence tests for series.
10. Use the definition to identify the conic sections, then draw a sketch of the curve of the given
conic.
11. Use the techniques of computing limits to define the improper integral.
