About this course
This course is the second semester of a two-semester sequence (MAA 4211–4212) intended for students who wish to pursue graduate study in mathematics. Tools that were developed in the first semester will used a great deal in the second.
Prerequisites
A grade of C or higher in MAA 4211, taken last semester. Any student not meeting this prerequisite must discuss his or her situation with me and get explicit permission from the Undergraduate Coordinator, Dr. Rick Smith, to take this class.
Note: MAA 4102/5104 (Advanced Calculus for Engineers and Physical Scientists 1) absolutely does not serve as a prerequisite for MAA 4212.
Other skills needed
You must have the ability to write in clear, unambiguous, grammatically correct English sentences. Having completed MAA 4211, you are now expected to be able to express mathematical ideas in precise terms, and communicate them clearly to other people. A factor in your grade will be whether your instructor can understand your written work without excessive re-reading.
