Math 151-152 - Calculus I, II for the Mathematical and Physical Sciences
|
 |
Math 151--152 is the introductory year course in the calculus sequence in New Brunswick for majors in the mathematical sciences, the physical sciences, and engineering.
- The first semester, Math 151 or 153, presents the differential calculus of the elementary functions of a single real variable: the rational, trigonometric and exponential functions and their inverses; various applications via the Mean Value Theorem; and an introduction to the integral calculus.
- The second semester, Math 152, continues the study of the integral calculus, with applications, and covers the theory of infinite series and power series, touching on differential equations and a few other topics as well.

Math 151-152 in Summer Session
Math 151 and Math 152 have the same content and essentially the same format during summer session as during the fall or spring semesters. Workshops are part of these courses at any time of year, though during the summer there is no TA or peer mentor.
The summer versions of Math 151 and Math 152 do not have a common final exam, and instead each section has a final written by its own instructor. The links below to materials from previous semesters may be helpful in preparing for these exams.
Math 153
Math 153 is an intensive form of Math 151 with an extra meeting time, covering the same syllabus. Most of the information given here for Math 151 applies to Math 153 as well.
Math 135
The calculus sequence for most business, economics, and life science majors is 135 followed by 136 or 138. Any students planning to continue the study of mathematics beyond two semesters will need the sequence beginning with 151 and 152.

Note: For Fall 2009, the Spring 2009 information gives a better indication of
what is coming than the Fall 2008 information.
For next summer, last
summer's information is most informative.
