Mathematical Analysis II

Objectives

Mathematical Analysis II is devoted to the study real of functions of several variables. Skills developed in
Mathematical Analysis 1 and Linear Algebra are put to test as a more comprehensive approach of analysis,
based on calculus and geometry, will treat fundamental issues such as optimization problems and Riemann
integration on planar or three dimensional domains.

Teaching method

Lectures and pratical sessions with exercises.

Evaluation method

Continuous Assessment System (only 1st season):
 Final grade is calculate by the following formula: 3 intermediate Tests  (T1, T2, T3) during the semester (minimum grade in each test: 7,5 points)
Final Grade: 30%T1+40%T2+30%T3 
 
Exam system (only 2nd season)
Final Exam (100%) (minimum grade: 9,5 points)
