Math313_Analysis

A pdf version of this content is available: Syllabus

Math 313 will cover the basic properties of real numbers, with special emphasis on completeness of the real numbers, and a rigorous development of Calculus through the fundamental theorem with attention paid to limits, continuous functions, differentiability, and the Riemann integral. Although the material is familiar, the point of view is different as we will accomplish our goals in a mathematically rigorous way beginning with a few basic notions.

Mtht 490, Analysis I for Teachers is a required extension to Math 313 for BST majors. It meets Tuesday 12:30 - 1:45. We will be exploring topics more deeply through problem solving. All Math 313 students are invited to attend. Mtht 490 extends the material to cover connections with teaching high school mathematics.

Prerequisite(s): Grade of C or better in MATH 215. Students will be writing proofs and inventing interesting examples throughout this course. Experience in Math 215 is invaluable for success and required to enroll. See the instructor for exceptions.
