Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
Math 22b is a proof-based introduction to multivariable calculus for students interested in mathematical sciences. It covers the same topics as Math 21a, but with greater rigor and with an emphasis on reading, writing, and understanding mathematical proofs. The workload for Math 22b is designed to be comparable to Math 21a. Students should have previously taken a course that teaches an introduction to proofs, for example, Math 22a; and students should also have experience with linear algebra. In addition to a focus on proofs, Math 22b uses more linear algebra concepts than Math 21a in developing multivariable calculus.
