Knowledge
The student who successfully completes the course will have a working knowledge of the main tools in linear algebra (linear systems, matrices, eigenvalues, analytic geometry) and in the differential and integral calculus for functions of several real variables (max/min problems, integrals in 2d and 3d, integrals over curves and surfaces).
Assessment criteria of knowledge
In the multiple choice test (30 minutes, 16 questions) the student must demonstrate his/her knowledge of the basic course contents and prerequisites.
In the written exam (3 hours, 4 problems), the student must demonstrate his/her ability to approach and solve standard problems requiring the tools presented in the course. Solutions are presented in written form. Correctness and clarity of solutions will be assessed.
During the oral exam the student's ability to explain correctly the main topics presented during the course at the board will be assessed.
Methods:
- Final oral exam
- Final written exam

Bibliography
Students are highly recommended to read the course notes prepared by the teacher (a printout of the lectures) which can be easily downloaded from the teacher's home page.
For the analysis part, also the following textbook are suggested:
Bramanti, Pagani, Salsa, Analisi II, Zanichelli
Barutello, Conti, Ferrario, Terracini, Verzini, Analisi II, Apogeo
Students are also highly recommended to work on the suggested exercises. For the mathematical analysis section of the course, theory and exercises can be found in the following textbooks:
M.Ghisi, M.Gobbino - Schede di Analisi Matematica - Edizioni Esculapio
M.Ghisi, M.Gobbino - Esercizi di Analisi Matematica II (Parte A) - Edizioni Esculapio
Further bibliography, especially for the linear algebra section, will be indicated.
